Listbox and textbox resizing issue in Prime 10

[ptc-2676882]

Hi, 

Having some challenges with advanced controls in Prime 10. I have attached the worksheet for reference. 

Would appreciate any suggestions or work around.

1. Listbox height is not fully resizing with font size. Some white space is left when resized to minimum height. 
2. If text boxes are arranged vertically, the dashed line around selected textbox overlaps significantly on adjacent text box.

Bit of context.. Recent reluctant mover from Mathcad 15 to Prime 10. We do a lot of team collaboration, so we used to use Mathcad 15 worksheets as templates letting the testers to access only input and output sections of the Mathcad worksheet to test the multiple product models before fine tuning them. so, it's critical to fit as many list boxes and text boxes in input section. We are trying this out in Prime 10 and seeing basic challenges compared to Legacy version.

All I can say is that nothing of what you described has been changed/fixed in the current version 11 of Prime.

If you delve deeper into the scripted components, you will probably also come across other unpleasantries that make the use of a worksheet more difficult for your testers.

One thing I find particularly annoying has to do with components that also have inputs.

We can hide the inputs, as well as the assignment to a variable,

but as soon as a user clicks an option in a list box, for example, this large plus sign appears, which they could then click by mistake.

In my opinion, this symbol (and also the variable assignment) should only appear when the component is explicitly edited, and it would be highly desirable if this editing option (individually or globally for the entire sheet) could be disabled and password-protected. Currently only areas can be password-protected but a user can't select an item from a list box placed in an open password-protected area and so this is no solution.

And, yes, I too miss good old real Mathcad ...

Hi Werner, 

Really appreciate for taking time to respond.

Yes came across that input + symbol issue as well, I was reserving that complaint for another post. But I guess you already gave that answer as well.

Is there a way that we can elevate these basic issues with PTC that will make Prime more user friendly specifically with advanced controls?

Was hoping to get some encouragement moving to Prime but got a shoulder to cry on.

If you are under active maintenance you may open a support case at official PTC support

https://www.ptc.com/support/case-logger

You will have to answer some questions and jump through some hoops until you finally can submit your request.

You also may consider creating a Mathcad "Idea" here
 https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad-Ideas/idb-p/PTCMathcadIdeas

but I am not sure if this really would help the program to get improved. PTC claims that *ideas* with a lot of upvotes will be considered by the development crew...
