Environment:
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Virtualized with Virtualbox
Mate installed after fresh installation and updated to Mate 1.16 via Ubuntu Mate repo
Mate menu installed and placed in top bar

I'm using Mate menu in italian, don't know if in other languages the issue is reproducible, supposed yes.

Menu should have the possibility to be resizable (or at least a bit bigger) to avoid text truncation in second and third column

I second this request. I also do not consider it a "minor" improvement. I can't believe it has been on the issue list for over a year and a half!

No, actually resizable to as large or small as desired. I would like to be able to enlarge it so that the full title of the app icons is visible for all apps.

oh, for me i want multiple columns more. have you tried setting the dpi ? look for font settings in dconf-editor org->desktop->mate->desktop->font rendering or something like that
