List's name chopped

See pic:

Many skins have this problem which is annoying.
I've tried editing the skin using the free editor for the List_View_Header bitmap, but can't seem to fix it.

Any easy fix?

I don't make blinds, so I don't know how to tell you to fix it, but I think the ones that can help you will need to know if it is just with a certain skin or all skins.

I raised this issue in August of 2004 and it has persisted thru WB4.x & now WB5. I've been told, I think by Adam Namanowicz, the SKS developer, that this is due to using small text in the column/list headers. I have the same problem with the skins I've made because I prefer small text there. I don't know what the "threshhold size" is since I've not chosen to experiment with it. I believe Neil Banfield, the developer of WB, is also aware of this but apparently there is not yet a workaround for it (other than using larger text there). I'm hopeful that this will eventually get resolved - it would certainly look better.

Cheers,
