number of visible menu ring items

[Neil.Pate]

Does anyone know how to set the number of elements visible in a ring menu?

What I mean is, when the user clicks on the ring, it drops down, and something decides how many elements to show, and how many to keep hidden (i.e. use of a scrollbar).
Is there a setting somewhere that determines how many are immediately visible?

Hi,

As far as I'm aware the scrollbar size is based upon the amount of items vs. size of the screen (i.e. screen bounds) - plus the use of a scrollbar inside a ring menu leads into question human computer interface abilities. My best advice to you would be to either split the rings up logically, or to fill them programmatically depending on other user interactions inside the program.

All the best,

Thanks Rob,

I sort of figured as much as I hunted high and low for a property node to modify it.

Unfortunately I do not have much control over the UI, it was more from a curiosity point of view.

I agree that it is not sensible to have dozens of items in the ring.
