RELATED IDEAS

Provide an option to view the screens using the MS Edge (Java) User Interface (IU) in a 'COMPACT' format to reduce the large amount of white space currently on the screen.

It would be very useful for anyone using the Java UI for Sterling Connect Direct to see more information at once instead of scrolling up and down just to see one piece of information.
It would be especially useful using the 'STATISTICS' enquiry because the current set up doesn't even manage to show 10 lines on one page - the smallest amount one can choose.
It would also be of benefit when configuring (new or amending) 'partners' because the details do not fit on one page and one is forced to scroll up and down to ensure the configuration is correct, possibly losing track of what settings have been chosen.

Obviously if this idea is 'liked' enough, perhaps this should be the default and have the user option to choose to fill the screen with white space instead.
