Field order space suggestion

Post by Nhaps »

It would be nice if field order space could be a little bigger. Scrolling works, but it would be convenient if we could get up to an inch more.

This window was designed so that everything you need to see would be displayed on the smallest screen in use. I'd have to evaluate this in light of that (granted, screens are higher density now). In the vast majority of cases the format is "horizontal" (on one line). I believe you keep modifying BibTeX, which is a rare "vertical" format with many lines. This is an uncommon instance (even for those that use BibTeX) and I wouldn't do something to the UI that would negatively impact the large bulk of our users.

Note that you can make the font size smaller so that can see more in the existing field (that won't affect the formatted output, which ignores the size of the text in this field).

Yes, working with BibTeX. Letter size is an option I can work with, thanks.
