Posts: 283 		Is there a way of having menu titles longer than 12 characters? I can make the items themselves longer by indirection, but at first glance it doesn't seem possible to do this with the title bar.

Posts: 12380 		There's a flag you can set in the first menu item that indicates that the title is indirected.

Posts: 283 		Wow - quick response - thanks. :)

Is this documented anywhere? I had a look in the PRMs, but couldn't see anything.

Posts: 12380 		It's in the StrongHelp WIMP manual - menu flags. Probably cribbed from the PRMs somewhere, but I don't have them with me to check.
