Description

Currently, the cinnamon menu only has 1 app per line. I want to just have icons next to each other instead (multiple per line), like you find on cinnamenu or on Android/iphones. One app per line just looks so dated and SLOW to navigate. You just scroll down and scroll down to find what you need.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the menu's application-list rendering entry point and review how the current one-app-per-line layout is built; done means an optional icon-grid/listing mode that shows multiple applications per row and preserves usable navigation.
