Hi, is it possible to implement a drop-down menu inside Groups window, in order to get easier access to each group?

Also, in the context menu, a Remove groups with 'Language' could be useful

You mean, replace the tabs with the drop-down menu in Menu->Dictionaries->Groups?

Do you have so many groups?

Yeah, something is not exactly right with the UI, way too many dots in the tabs. A workaround for now is to increase the dialog size to have proper tab names. Or, use tooltips with the full tab names.

those workarounds are ok when one has a number of groups that won´t need to be scrolled, I suppose. Even with the dialog at maximum width, if it needs scrolling it will give those dots again (...) Anyway, I am almost finished organizing and eventually came down to a non-scrolling number of groups
