Show all icons on the new Nextcloud menu

[Ludovicis]

Hello, sorry but i can't create a pull in your git directory...
I refer to this post:
https://help.nextcloud.com/t/always-display-all-apps-instead-of-an-ellipsis-nc12/21891

Can you update direct_menu for always display all apps instead of an ellipsis in Nextcloud 12 or 13, please ?

Thanks,

[juliusknorr]

I'll not put any further development effort to it, but if anyone else want to jump in, i would be happy to merge the changes and release a new version of it.

2 years later, NC 18 and I'm facing the same need: see as max apps icons as possible on the screen, not only the 1rst third of them.

And it's not a matter of apps order, just that with a 24" screen, you could see far more of apps without needing to clink in the ellipsis.

Been trying to look at in ../nextcloud/core/js/js.js but it does not exist in 18(?)
Found in dist/main.js.map where minAppsDesktop is const.

Look at the following. Perhaps what you want to do:

Thanks @rcweemhoff !
I knew the 1st link which finally leads here. :)

The 2nd link, which is a CSS based solution sounds good, although the Custom CSS warning is not to let me confident:

You can specify your own CSS here. Be aware that this might break something after upgrade.

This looks more like a workaround than a solution.

App order (already used) is not the solution.
