I just updated to version 1.6.5 and now I can no longer see all the tool icons on the left side of the screen (I have the window maximized). Only the very top of the Pen tool is visible, and I can't see the Text tool at all.  I haven't been able to find a way to reduce the size of the left column of tool icons so they're all visible. Can anyone help?

I finally figured out that I could drag some of the tools off that I don't use, which moved the Pen and Text icons up so they're now visible.

You can also set the Tools panel to use 2 (or more) columns so there will be space for more tools on it.

How do I do that?  I'd also like to make the macro panel narrower since it's much wider than necessary. Is there a way to do that. I appreciate your help.

To change the number of columns on the Tools panel, choose View > Customize Tools (not Customize Toolbar), then at the bottom of the window that opens, you should see "Number of Columns:" with a popup choice of 1 through 8 columns.

To change the width of the Macro panel, hover the pointer over the inside vertical edge until it turns into a double arrow with a line through it. Then click & drag horizontally. There is a minimum width, & the panel may already be set to that.

Thank you R C-R.  I totally missed the setting for number of columns.  This morning when I was back at my computer with Affinity Photo still open, I noticed the tool icons on the left had shrunk to the size they were before I updated so now there's a couple of inches of empty space at the bottom of the column.  I was unable to change the width of the Macro panel, so it must be at the minimum width, which is about 4" on my screen (and I only use about 6 macros), but I can live with that now that the panels on the left and right have shrunk back to the size they were before updating. Thank you again for your speedy responses to my questions.
