Yep, did that. Set the number to zero. It doesn't show recent programs but the menu is just as tall as before. Look: Thanks. The white logo turning translucent on mouse hover looks good. However, it would look even better if there would appear a slightly darker square around it on mouse hover like it is done in Start8. (Sorry for my repeatedly mentioning Start8.)

Hi! I've been using Start8 since Windows 8 was released. Recently I tried StartIsBack 2.1 and found that its search functionality is superior to that of Start8. I'm planning to switch to StartIsBack. Please add the following two features in a future version: 1. Ability to set a size for the Start menu. Currently there is no way to make it smaller than the maximum size that makes it go all the way to the top of the screen. If there are say just 6 programs pinned and I've turned off the display recent programs, most of the menu remains blank. 2. More options for buttons. I want to have a button like the default white one in Start8. It's perfectly gels with the overall Windows8 minimalistic theme. I searched a lot in DeviantArt and WinCustomize but couldn't find its equivalent. Thanks. (Sorry if I posted my request at the wrong place. It is the only StartIsBack forum I could find.)
