Extend the Submenu length

Post by ConligWX »

Hi Ken

Is there any way I can lengthen the Submenu length in the flyout-menus so that the text is not wrapped onto the next line or, is the Submenu a fixed length of the main menu, and that I just need to carefully word the caption names?

Thanks
Regards Simon

The latter... control your caption lengths to avoid wrapping. The CSS to produce a CSS-only menu is fairly complicated and not easily tweaked. The current version took Mike Challis and me quite a while to get it to produce consistent results with wide/narrow aspect and various themes.

If you must tweak, the code is in flyout-menu.php to generate the CSS on-demand.
