Configuring the menu in Cinnamon

Thank you all! The solution presented in the link worked for me.

  1. Copy the folder /usr/share/cinnamon/applets/menu@cinnamon.org to ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/menu@cinnamon.org

  2. In the local copy open ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets/menu@cinnamon.org/applet.js in a text editor.

  3. Navigate to line 32 const MAX_BUTTON_WIDTH = "max-width: 20em;"; and reduce the value of 20 (10 works good).

In my file it was on line 30.

I’ll mark post #2 as solution (sorry @ricklinux! @alenbasic was first. :blush:)
