Default Cell Styles always expanded in ribbon

On my wife's computer, in the home tab, the "Cell Styles" selection is always expanded and is embedded in the ribbon with a scroll bar at the right, rather than a drop-down selection. She says it has not been this way until today and changed nothing she knows of. And indeed on my computer it is a drop-down selection just like "conditional formatting" and "format as table" next to it.

I can't find an option selection to change it. I tried running office diagnostics and also "repair" install of office. Nothing found nothing changed.

How do I get the layout back to normal (and avoid having the problem return)?

There isn't anything wrong with her Office or her layout. The Ribbon expands to take advantage of available space, so it looks different on different computers, being affected by monitor size and the resolution settings. I use wide monitors at home and at work, so my Cell Styles gallery looks like hers, and I much prefer it.

The bottom part of that scrollbar is actually a "More" button. (Point to it and the screentip says "More".) Click the More button to expand the gallery and see all the choices. Many galleries in MS Office feature a More button if they have enough room across the window to display.

Thanks.

Neither of us thought of making the window wider as something that would alter the ribbon. And we did put a new wider monitor on her computer recently, which allowed the excel window to be wide enough to cause the ribbon to expand cell styles.
