The groups panel currently requires quite a lot of space, if the complete group names are to be shown, especially in highly nested group structures. If there's not enough space, the group names will be abbreviated or - in the worst case - not shown. I noticed that there's quite a lof of unused space between the group names and the figure indicating the number of entries in a group. Maybe this space needs to be reduced a bit (?). See attached file for comparison:

Hmmm, it's not the same problem, as pixels are not missing in the UI. But, indeed, you could see it as being related to this UI design issue.

It would be nice if you could check with this tool the css styles: http://fxexperience.com/scenic-view/
This could give us some insights where the space is comingfrom
