You can't expanf the Track Control Panel sideways only up and down.

To see more of the trackname click on it and select "Name ..." from the drop down

Wasn't there a "Feature Request" for a "Tool Tip" that displayed the entire track name when the pointer hovered over it?
Can't seem to find it now.
