Shortcuts in style panels truncate names

Does anyone know of a way to get the layout of the invisible columns in the style panels to be more useful?

 

Currently there's a huge amount of wasted space, and still the name of the style is truncated beyond usability if there's a shortcut assigned to that style.

Thanks Uwe. Looks like I already did that a while ago. I must be the only person it bothers however, as it's got no votes.

Hi Stephen,

there is no feature for the layout of the columns in any of the styles panels.

Would be a feature request, I think. Something that can be done in the Links panel.

 

Go to InDesign UserVoice and do one:

When done or you found one already in place please come back and post the URL of the FRQ so that others can comment on it or, most important!, vote for it.

 

Thanks,
Uwe Laubender

Add my name to that list. Annoying, for sure.

Saying something less facetious like "that's not possible" – or just not saying anything – would have been preferable.
