Icon size in Application folder

WHen viewing the application folder from the Dock, the icons have now been enlarged and I have to scroll through the application folder to find apps, how can I reduce the icon size within the Application folder? when viewed from the Dock?

Thanks

Hi,

Yes I tried that and it does reduce the icon size in the folder view, but it has no impact on the view of the apps folder from the Dock ....strange ....

there is no way to change the icon size in the Dock stacks. it's quite independent from the view options for the folder that a stack represents and can not be modified.

Thx

Hello,

Created another User ID and the problem is the same, please also note that I have now upgraded another MAC to 10.6.1 and I have the same problem on that system.

Thx

Same problem in root account and my standard user account. Same thing in a Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro.

It is not a user specific problem.

Ditto the above. On my small Air screen the Apps Dock stack takes up half the screen and I have to scroll to see more than 25 apps at a time. More control over the UI would be lovely.

Is there any progress so far ? Has anyone found the solution ?

I co-sign. It is sooo frustrating.

Apple needs to fix this. And it's been 3 months already....
