Where is "Show More Tiles"

I have heard and read about an option in the Settings panel of Windows 8 when you are on the Start menu, called "Show More Tiles". I am running Windows 8 Enterprise RTM and do not see this option. I am running on a laptop with 1600x900 resolution, but
I am even trying this when docked and I have a 1920x1080 resolution monitor and still don't see it.
Is anyone familiar with this option and why I might not see it?

I was having a similar issue With my Surface Pro 2 and Win 8.1. I had the Surface Pro 2 set to 100% display scaling, and the "Show More Tiles" option checked but the number of rows of tiles on the start screen only showed 4 rows.
But when I used my laptop that has a native resolution of (1680x1050) and used it to remote desktop into my Surface Pro 2 my Surface Pro 2 under remote desktop would show 6 rows of tiles even though the screen resolution was smaller.
Also when I used the Surface Pro 2 to remote desktop into my desktop machine at (1920x1080) My desktop was showing 6 rows of tiles.
I also tried the registry hack proposed by AnthonyDaand did the fallowing ...
-Open regedit
-Go to \HKEY_Current_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ImmersiveShell\Grid
-Change the key "Layout_MaximumRowCount" to the number of rows you want.
-You need to log off & log in again in order to apply it.
The Layout_MaximumRowCount entry was not there so I created it and set it to 6 but I was still only getting 4 rows of tiles after logging off and back on.
I finally tracked down a settings switch under "Charms->Settings->Change PC Settings->PC and Devices->Display->More Options" There was a combo box with 2 options "Default" and "Smaller". Selecting smaller made everything under the metro interface
smaller and I then had 6 rows of tiles showing up on my start screen.
Posting this as many people seems to be having the same issues. But did not see this being mentioned.

  • How do you either set "Show More Tiles" or Start Screen rows via command line or script for Windows 8.1?

    Is there a method to change the Start Screens number of rows (similar to Windows 8.0's use of the Explorer\Scaling\MonitorSize in registry). Possibly by forcing the switch for "Show More Tiles" via script etc? This is to enable the device with
    Windows 8.1 to be built using a deployment methodology like SCCM and have the Tiles correctly configured as required for a standard look and feel across devices. I do not know why all these switches are not represented in either WMI or the registry to enable
    the customization of look and feel out of the box for enterprise deployments.
    Thanks for any assistance possible.

  • Where has the "Show more bookmarks" arrow on the end of the Bookmarks Toolbar gone?

    On previous versions of Firefox, when the window width is less than the amount required to show all your bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar, you had a drop-down "Show more bookmark" arrow at the end of the toolbar to reveal them.
    However, in this new beta it's gone, and I can't find anywhere to bring this functionality back.
    (On the machine I'm writing this on, it still has Firefox 3 so I can see this feature, however on my Macbook Pro I've installed the latest version of the beta version, and it's not there)

    Some themes still keep it visible. FXChrome 5 for example. But by default, not sure. Can't seem to find any reference to it either in terms of userChrome.css

  • Search Results - Filter Results By: - Show More ...

    When I use the "Show More ..." option under one of the "Filter Results By:" groups, it works as expected. When I then select one of the items to filter by, it again works as expected. However, if I hit the back browser function or select the "Unfilter" option, the "Show more ..." expansion is restored. I suggest it return to the "Show Top 5..." presentation (as before the individual filter was selected).

    Hi Sid,
    You are right, I thought about this BADI we already enhanced it for BP authorization (like many people did in this forum). However my concern is that this BADI gets called like a million times before it gets back to the search result page and I am just not sure of the impact on performance. So I was thinking if anything else is possible at UI level. But may be I don't have many options here :(.  Also if I select the multiple values for the field in the BADI it comes up in debug mode
    MARKETINATTR   I EQ  "VALUE1"
    MARKETINATTR   I EQ  "VALUE2"
    it is searching for both individually, so it is basically working as a select option, not sure how I can combine them both.
    Also you mentioned that searching BP on marketing attr is not possible in standard, but I think it is possible and we are searching on it. I know we have enhanced BP search for some other purposes but not for marketing Attr. as I can clearly see a standard field for MARKETINATTR  in the  context of  BPMAINSEARCH IMPL class and when I use it in the search field it does pop up another view when I hit f4 on the possible values where I can select my attr set, attribute & value. I am on 7.0 by the way.
    Thanks,

  • E52 how to show more than one calender entry on di...

    Hi All,
    The issue is to have Currency Sign pop-up with related currencies.
    Yeah you are right the currency key will decide which currency to push in BI (from ECC) and it depends on source system to send the right document currency for that particular record.
    The reaosn not going to multiple columns is to avoid data redundency as we do not know how many currencies could come. And the result, report will end up having extra columns to hold these Multiple values (USD,EUR,INR etc)
    Have you seen a report where you have Currency Sign other than Dollers ($).
    Thanks for looking into it.

  • Showing More than 1 Channel EQ

    On occasions I can not show more than one channel EQ at a time. Other times I seem to be able to open as many as I want.
    Is this a bug or is it to do with settings some where?

    Joff, there is now a link button on Plugin floating windows, the same as you'd see in the arrange, and other windows. This makes it so that each plugin you click on opens in the same window position, replacing what was there previously. More like the way you view plugins in protools.
    Turn open more than one plugin window at a time make sure that is switched off.

  • How to show more than one record at a form-like style report?

    Hi All,
    I developed a form-like style report
    I want it to show more than one record at once (At the same page)
    I tried that by setting the value to "Maximum records per page" property for the repeating frame to 10
    but when I close the property palete and open it agian the value is returned to 1 !!!
    how to show more than one record at the same page?????
    Thank u

    Hi,
    there's perhaps another property like "page protect". If than 2 records didn't fit at one page there's a page break. Or is there any object inside the repeating frame with page-break properties? Sorry .. it's like looking into a chrystal ball ...
    Regards

  • Can SharePoint calendar show more than 3 items on a Day's schedule in Month view? How?

    Hi there,
    Can SharePoint calendar show more than 3 items on a Day's schedule in Month view? How?
    Thank you so much.

    Hi,
    From your description, my understanding is that you want to expand all items if a Day’s schedule has more than 3 items.
    You could accomplish your requirement with jQuery to auto expand all items when you load month view, please refer to this article:
    Auto Expand Month View on SharePoint 2013 Calendar

    If I misunderstand your requirement, please provide more detailed information.

    Better yet... as there's a lot of "wasted" space w/ too large Month title and empty space surrounding the Month title above and too much space surrounding the month/year slider bar below, how can I minimize these to allow me more usable / valuable calendar "contents" so I don't need to waste so much time clicking "more" just to see the bottom of the truncated third event and find out there are no 4+ events posted that date?  i.e. more "user-friendly" presentation?

  • Show more hours in calendar week view!?

    How do I show more hours in the calendar week view?
    In iOS 6 I could see 10 hours, but in iOS 7 I can only see 8 hours. This might nit seem like a big deal, but it's extremely annoying!
    And why can I not alter how many hrs I want to see in the preferences...?

    You can turn your iPad to portrait mode but that only gets you 4 more hours. Beyond that I don't think there is a way to increase hours shown.
