Many of my section names are long and start with very similar words.  When I go to the report settings >section colors & Print order box, the column is not wide enough to show me my entire section names, therefore making it very difficult for me to omit the correct sections/pages if i do not have any information for that section in the current report that I am working on.  It would be nice to adjust the size of the box and then be able to widen or narrow the columns so that the information can be seen more clearly.

Hmm, well first I'll make a popup when you hover over it that shows the entire title. I made them adjustable but I have to keep the columns narrow because of the 800x600 resolution monitors. Do you think the popup (like when you hover over a long comment) will be enough? I'll look at shortening the color boxes some too.

Tooltip popup added. I'll consider this complete unless you guys let me know it's not good enough. Hover over the first column will give the complete name.

The popup with hovering over will be just fine.  Thanks.

Ok, cool. I finished it and added it to the win beta last night. I'm working on the mac beta right now. Just have to finish changing around some of the layout (kind of like designing a website for two browsers, the site never wants to look the same on both).
