Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): Nov 20 2019, at 01:49:33
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Kubuntu 18.04
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: No
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

As you can see from this screenshot many games available from the Steam store have names that are longer than the fixed width that has been chosen for displaying them in the games list pane.

If that pane were resizeable horizontally the user could decide for themselves how much (if any) of the names to truncate. For the other screen elements which might be affected, the Home button and dropdown menu are already larger than the minimum required and the Search box can be of any width.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Have a game in your library whose name is longer than 31 characters
  2. The games name is truncated in the games list panel
  3. Try to resize the panel so that the game's name will be properly displayed.

I guess this can be closed now, since you've done it.

Added the ability to resize the game list by dragging the divider between the left and right panels
