Wireshark UI question

Wireshark Experts,

Is there a way to resize the fields (1st one, described below) in wireshark where it displays the summary information. (This exists at the very bottom of the Wireshark UI)

Example: it shows the following

Time to live (ip.ttl), 1 byte   <------ Is there a way to increase the size of this field
Packets: 451 Displayed: 3 Marked: 0 Dropped:0
Profile: Default


I have a custom dissector and have somewhat longer names. When I click on a particular packet and navigate to a protocol field, it displays the name of that field. 

Example: Field Description (myprotocol.field1.datamember), 2 bytes. But the amount of realestate that is needed is not sufficient and Wireshark truncates it to 

Field Description (myprotocol.fie...

Any advice?

Thanks,
Sean

Did you try using the resize handle between the two statusbars?

Thanks Stig. That worked. I somehow missed it.
