Thanks for clarifying what highlighted section to look at. The height of each of the pull downs is determined by the font size, so if you make the answers "Yes" or "No" smaller font size, that will change the height and resize the pull down box accordingly. The length of the pull down is set as a default.
OK Ashley Thanks for the answer. And Sorry for late replying.
I have no issues regarding the height of the drop-down I was just looking to reduce the width and now from your answer it feels like with is defined by the SL itself and there is no way to reduce it.
Well I tried to submit the request but it was asking me to submit serial key and I dont have that as I'm just using demo I'll do that once I purchase the licence.
The serial number is not a required field, so you should be able to submit a support case or a feature request without having it. I've gone ahead and submitted a feature request on your behalf.
Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks a lot Ashley, for submitting feature request and updating my information. I will submit the another request about scrollbar color change as you suggested earlier. Please let me know if you already submitted both. And one more question will I get any updated for the request that you submitted on my behalf?
You can indeed change the width of the drop down boxes in slide view (not form view). Drag the handle on the left or right edge of the full question display box (don't use the handles of each individual statement/dropdown box to try to do this). When you contract the width of the full question layout, you will see your statements word wrap and overlap, but you will also see the dropdown box widths reduced.
What I do is delete the text of the statements, shrink the width of the question display panel, and then use separate text boxes to add my statements. In form view, I enter the first statement as a single blank space, the next as two blank spaces, the next as three blank spaces and so on.

Hi Parashuram,
The scroll bar color can't be changed, but that would be a good feature request.
Which highlighted object are you referring to? The blue highlighted box?
Hello Ashley,
I'm referring to the drop-down list it has only "Yes" and "No" words. So no need to show them that much large here can I reduce their width somehow?

No apologies necessary, it was the weekend after all!
You're right, there isn't a way to reduce it right now. Did you submit this as a Feature request?
