    I think if you have so many entries on one menu that you need something like this, there are larger issues... Perhaps the Office 2007 guys are on the right track after all. :)

      Well forget menus. What about as a replacement for scrollbars in a list control?

        Wooops, I didn't mean menus per se I was thinking more about list controls. Try as we might there is always going to be a need to list a very large number of things.

          Well, after reading this message I tried to build something like it, and I got something working. It hasn't got quality enough to be an article, at least for now, so if you want I can send it to you by mail so you can see it. It's on .NET 2.0 and C# Matias Szulman

                    I guess it would be fairly easy in the web using js / css - our current web context menu uses two styles to high / low light items - they could be modified to crank up / down the text size I guess...in fact - I think I'm gonna try that one! :)

                      Yeah, but can you imagine the bazillion lines of custom-draw code you'd have to write? X|
