In Kontakt 8, the drop-down menu has a pre-defined space. How it is possible to fit this to the length of the longest word of the drop-down menu?

    Very simply for example:

    declare ui_menu $menu
    set_control_par(get_ui_id($menu),$CONTROL_PAR_WIDTH, 122)

    By changing the number after WIDTH, everyone gets satisfaction.

    Thank you. That sets width for the menu, I was writing about this part.

    This part is not editable via KSP but you can allocate an image of your choice to the object that is the Menu.

    You cannot change that.

    In that context, can NI consider making this width relative to the length of the word in that menu? I assume it is that way in Kontakt 5. When user has drop down menu 1,2,3,4,5 or C,D,E,F,G that extra space is not required.

    From a UX/UI point of view, it doesn’t really make sense to use such a wide menu for entries that only have one character. Just my two cents :)
