Hi, my feature request is 3 or more columns in the start menu. This would be useful for adding more things to the start menu. Column_Break could make a 3rd column, possibly more. There is a menu that I'd like to make, but it requires a 3rd column.
Thanks for reading! =) -Red.

I would love this too for Windows 7 style! 3 or more columns would allow pinning a far greater number of items without reducing the Frequently used items. It will also make better use of the screen space horizontally.

Well tiles have more limitations imposed by Microsoft:
- Tiles don't have jumplists. Although Classic Shell "Large icons" as Tiles could have them
- Tiles take up way too much space at the Medium/Large size but cannot display essential textual names at Small size. The Classic Shell implementation if done could be different from Microsoft's though in this regard too.

Happens that Start9 can address atleast the latter issue:


And I'm still trying to figure out how to Jump Lists...no luck so far, but Classic Shell proves that it's possible, so...there's hope :V
