Bug Description

1) The version and edition of Linux Mint you are using (if you are not sure, open a terminal and run "mintwelcome").
12 Lisa with Cinnamon

2) What you did for the problem to happen, and how to reproduce it.
Click on the network-manager icon

3) What happened.
My laptop sees so many wireless networks that it can't draw on the screen.

4) What you expected to happen instead.
I would like to be able to see the whole list. A scrolling function should be avaible in such cases.

5) If the problem happened once, sometimes, or always.
Always when I'm at a wifi-dense location.

See attached picture.
