Right-click menu needs filters or folders - too many items visible - and the list overflows the page height.  
Example of one of my databases its entity right click menu:

Wow, you have a lot of automations!  
I don’t know how many users suffer from the same problem.

Very much agree! I created an idea for this last year. See below:

> [@Reorder Context Menu Buttons](https://community.fibery.io/t/reorder-context-menu-buttons/5476):
>
> I’ve mentioned this in the past, but thought I’d submit as an official idea for tracking/conversation. See sketch below. The one on the left is the current right click for our tasks database. The buttons are listed in the order they were created, but this is not the order I would present them in. This is tiny thing that constantly bugs me, but I would love to be able to reorder them. Also in my opinion the top actions should just be icons with hover descriptions like they are everywhere else. …

Overflowing page height - it needs vertical scrollbars  
This is the right-click menu in a table view.

Out of interest, what’s the difference between a Y Page and a Page (or a Y Note and a Note, or a …)?

The Y Page and the Page (any duplicate versions of database names) are part of different Spaces with different group permissions set. Once entity level permissions is implemented for groups in access templates, this workaround is not necessary any more. Am I correct?

This keeps on being a problem and makes the right-click menu unworkable.

Given the progress being made on permissions and bearing in mind this

> [@Yuri\_BC](#):
>
> Once entity level permissions is implemented for groups in access templates, this workaround is not necessary any more.

then the number of databases/automations (and thus the size of the right click menu) will perhaps soon be reduced, in your particular case.

In the meantime, any other users with similar challenges are welcome to comment/vote here.

Unfortunately that won’t suffice because its not (only) the number of databases appearing, it is also the number of automation buttons. For example:

 ![mBvYS3z](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/2/212c795c96adb19d89faedd666fd4d25d1a46ab0.png)

I think sooner or later this really needs addressed and it can be a simple css fix like making a vertical scroll appear just like it has been (partly) fixed in this issue:

> [@Make scrollbar appear when needed in list levels dropdown](https://community.fibery.io/t/make-scrollbar-appear-when-needed-in-list-levels-dropdown/4743):
>
> Let’s suppose you want (the often needed) list with ‘recently created entities’ of all entity types. I created a list with all the entity types in the space, which is a big space with 40 entity types. The dropdown menu for adding levels to the list, does not create a scrollbar when the list exceeds the browser window. Uses can’t add more levels than allowed by the height of their browser window.

Yes, a scroll bar would solve the UI issue, will log it.  
It doesn’t address the topic as described in the title: ‘needs filters or folders’ though 🤷

Can we please fix this long standing bug?

 ![Arc_24NOjhXKNI](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/5/5a42e55919b44020a3fa1b67a393382f65ba0cd7.png)

# Note

BTW the right-click menu needs an overall upgrade to allow users to **select what shows up there**!  
That would fix the real issue instead of only a scroll bar.

FYI - I have NEVER used the right-click menu to click a button! I would remove all buttons from the menu.

The three-dots-menu in the entity UI apparently is the same as the right-click menu, and I find it very clogged with entries, although that menu has a scrollbar, it would be much better to have the option to choose what shows up in there

Related: [Button group dropdown field - #4 by Yuri\_BC](https://community.fibery.io/t/button-group-dropdown-field/6396/4)

If you can group buttons, then the UI can show in the same way as the “Convert to…” on the right click. Saving space for actions that are similar. (For example, looking at your buttons, “AI” could be a group, or all timer functions, (Start, stop, reset) could be a group. Saving space.)

Still doesnt fix the overflow bug though.

This issue makes the right-click menu not usable. When can this be fixed?

I guess this is a good FiberFlow candidate, although I consider it an issue. Ideally buttons need to have a status ‘Pinned’ which make them show or hide from the right-click context menu

We dont have a long right-click menu, but there have been several times that the menu extends below the screen (when right-clicking an item that is, itself, close to the bottom).

</div>

Because we never use buttons in either the actions panel or the right-click context menu, I applied the following FiberFlow tweak css:

```auto
.r19im9cu.buttons_actions {
display: none;
}

```
