Humm, mine said 12, so I changed it to 20.  dbl-clicking the highlighted 
line should bring up a requester that you can enter the new amount in.  But 
I believe you have to do some activity to build up the new display, as mine 
is still only showing 12 results.  It did still say 20 when I quit and 
restarted, so at least the setting 'took'.
