I just installed this extension but can't figure out how to make it work. I'm logged in to my gmail account and the extension is installed and has access. What should I do to make it work on my gmail labels? Thanks for your help.

I'm using a nested system of labels, so shortening the label names saves a lot of space in the folder view. I wonder how the other 8B users of Gmail can live without this.
