Here we've reintroduced the StripColor parameter, using the same blue you see in the left frame, and set the LineColor to match the BgColor, effectively removing the line. We've also removed the arrow by setting UseArrows to 'no'.

Along with a smaller font, the EntrySpacing is reduced to 4, making the entries more tightly packed. Finally, the selector bars reappear, by setting UseSelectors to 'yes'.

Entries remain selected after being clicked (the default action in CoolStrip v1.5), and we've specified a TextSelectColor of yellow.

The example below is similar, but we've added the arrows and line again, and reduced the EntrySpacing to 0 for maximum space-saving. We've also right-aligned the menu-entries.
