P: Brush preset names chopped off

I used third-party brush presets in Camera Raw, and in the new upgrade the narrow dialog box that comes up to select them is TOO narrow -- it cuts off the names. So, for example, for five presets for brightness brushes from Matt K, all with different names, all I see for them is "MK -DodgeBurn Bright..." - the identifiers for the different styles are not visible. This is the case even if expanding Camera Raw to full screen. The box remains narrow. The only fix, it would appear, is to rename all my presets to fit in the available skinny space, which is ridiculous. I'll get used to the overall changes, but please - FIX THIS. Wasn't an issue before the upgrade.

I recently purchased Matt K's course on the new masking features in LR and ACR. It came with a number of presets, which is where the issue occurs. In Photoshop Camera Raw, the drop-down for the Adjustment Presets (panel shown after clicking on the new masking button) is WAY to narrow. As a result, in this particular case, there are multiple presets showing as "MK Dodgeburn - Dark..." because the name is truncated. As you can see looking at the panel, there is a lot of wasted space between the words "Adjustment Preset" and the drop-down. This bug is specific to the the Windows versions, in Matt-K's training video it can be seen that on Mac, the same drop-down is a lot wider; the dropdown is a lot closer to the "Adjustment Preset" text. Also, in Windows LR Classic, which has the same functionality, the drop down is a lot wider and all the Preset names are shown in full. I am using the very latest version of PS (updated yesterday) on Windows 10, also up to date. This is clearly an issue with the design of the panel, i.e. location and size of the drop-down, in the Windows product. Should be easy to fix.

On an aside, in PS the list of presets can be scrolled with the mouse where in LR classic, I have to click on arrows at the top or bottom of the list to get the next page of items which is annoying.

Thanks, Adriaan
