 From a new users perspective the label "Screen Options" doesn't make any
 sense. Seems technical, it doesn't express anything meaningful. From a
 general perspective by reading a buttons text it should be clear to users
 what it does. Besides that the text Screen Options is not that common
 either.

 In my opinion, It would be easier and meaningful if it uses one of these :

 '''1. see more'''
 '''2. more information'''
 '''3. display more'''


 '''Google Books Ngram Viewer
 '''how many times these terms has been used (from year 1800 to 2000)
