Show Timetable window 31/05/2016 at 11:35 #82784

Hello,

A little while back I posted a thread asking a question about activities being marked complete instead of disappearing.

To add to that, there is a neat little trap regarding the width of the Show Timetable window - for multiple activities at one location, sometimes activities are not visible because the window isn't wide enough, but there is no visual clue of this.

Example:



Seems fairly straightforward, 5A02 comes in, drops front and rear... but wait:



Nope! There's a little bit of extra important info off to the right, but no clue that the window needs to be wider. Usually in Windows a scroll bar is present, or maybe a little arrow to indicate that there is more to see.

If anyone takes a look at the Show Timetable window in the future, would it be possible to implement just a small visual clue when there is any text which isn't visible?

Cheers

Further to that, would it be possible to have adjustable column widths? Sometimes the station name/timing point is lengthy and the entire name is not shown which can make life difficult sometimes.

Indeed - there are certain TT locations where it's almost impossible to find a window that will show the full name. York has a few of these, with the signal number the location refers to being well hidden!

Yes, especially in flexible reversing locations where it lists the full name of the location and then the three or four signals you could choose to reverse behind. The text just runs off the edge of the column and is unreadable
