Excuse me but I do not speak English.
I do not like the entries above. Can this be done in the program?

In 'Classic with 2 columns' Yes easily: just add 'column padding' in the 'customize start menu' tab where you want the divide to be (right after the column break)
In windows 7 style its considerably more difficult but can be done by modifying the skin

Very kind in your response. I have everything personalized in "Windows 7 style" and there is no such option, in "Classis with two columns" I see that yes. Many thanks to you

Yes, in the windows 7 style as I said, someone would need to customize the .skin7 file in your classic shell/skins folder manually to do what you want.
If you attach the skin here, along with listing:
your Screen resolution
Your DPI settings
and the number of items you want in the right side of the menu (sadly this has to be hard-coded)

I can make it look as you want in your modified screenshot.

Well many thanks
This link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B47yaf ... sp=sharing
Or this link: https://www.4shared.com/rar/TELTtAyhca/ ... Shell.html

Screen resolution: 2560x1440
DPI: 0 (in Classic Shell: Start Menu Settings) 100% (in Windows)
Number of items

that I want: 25 blank lines


I do not know if all the information is correct :? (I'm sorry, another language is difficult)

How does this look?
If you need to make tweaks: download Reshacker 3.6 (The newer version is buggy don't bother with it)
Open the .skin7 file with it
Select the first file in the first folder
then hit ctrl+F and type "Main2_padding=8,846,8,9"
The number we are looking for here is the 846, this specifies how far down the second column buttons start
If you need more space, you want a bigger number.
If it is pushing the left column up (aka blank space at the bottom left) then you want a smaller number.
After picking a number compile, and then save (to desktop) then replace the file in your skins folder and restart classic shell.

OH, I did not see your file (now yes :P )


I did my own work, the software is very good.

I inquired and I put it increased the size of the letters, I put it to my liking.

Although everything was ugly, up, middle or down.

In the end I left it down as in the image.
You have helped me a lot, you are a kind person, thank you.
