Category dropdown list

Hello,
Using OC 4.1.0.3
When adding sub-categories, I can get 5 to line up, up and down vertically in the drop down list.
When adding the 6th it starts a new column, and the text overflows the text area ( box )
How do I prevent the drop down list from starting a new column and keep all the sub-categories all lined up vertically ?
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks for your time,
Dan

Are you talking about on the front-end or in the admin?

Perhaps give us a link to your site?

Hi Paul,
Yes on the front end. If I put more than 5 sub-categories in a category, the 6th one will start a new column within the container. The whole sub-category container will double in width, which may be ok and that is how it's supposed to work. I was just wanting to know if there was a setting somewhere where that could be changed without too much trouble. Thought there might be a setting that has a limit of 5, which you could increase the limit.
Unfortunately I consolidated 3 sub-categories into 1 on my website and now it only shows the one column.
Thanks for your time,
Dan
