Question

Screen views

QBDT Pro+ 2023

Many of the screens have the primary field in a column that is very small each time it is opened, and so each time going to that screen means we spend time "organizing" that screen ... increasing some columns and not others, This seems like a waste of time each time going to a particular screen. One example would be the Chart of Accounts. The main column (number and name of the account) is very small, and to read the detail of the account # and description, we need to expand that column. Some of the other columns also need to be tweaked. Then, if a change is made, say one of the accounts is edited, the screen returns to the original view with the primary in a very small column.

 

Is there some way to freeze a screen view so that this waste of time can be eliminated? I can't be the only person concerned about spending time doing things that shouldn't be a problem to begin with.??
