Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

The "Link Schedule" window is too narrow and cuts off the schedule name too early

If 2 schedules have the same first word, you can't differentiate the two

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

The ideal solution is a resizable window + resizable columns + horizontal scroll

But a wider window already helps as well as increasing the Name column's width

Resizable columns + horizontal scroll is a must though

Teaching and learning

For resizable columns, a simple white vertical line between the columns could be enough of a visual tip

For a resizable window, some pattern in the bottom right corner should do

I believe this is updated already. Can you try out edge.actualbudget.org?

Yo, I had no idea about this site. Awesome!

The new window is much better as I can see around 10 more characters in the name column

The window and columns are still static though, but at this point, I think the resizable column should be its own feature request as the window is no longer "too narrow"

Ok. Could you open a new feature request for just that? Ill close this one off.
