Expand the "Name" field in the command "New Multiple Documents" by mouse drag

Expand the "Name" field in the command "New Multiple Documents" by mouse drag

Our customer Minebea Co., Ltd. has an enhancement request regarding Windchill PDMLink.

They would like to expand the "Name" field in the command "New Multiple Documents" by mouse drag.

They have managed the document on the basis of a "Name" to recognize the kind of file.

However, when registering two or more documents newly, the extension of files are not automatically displayed on the "Name" field. 

They check the "Name" after the input of all the documents.
At that time it is necessary to display the last of each "Name" field manually to all the documents since the "Name" field are automatically inextensible.
It spends much time.

Yes! This is an awesome idea. If you have used this window before, you know the pain of trying to work with long file names and long document names in the fixed width columns. There is no scrollbar, you must use mouse select to scroll back and forth. This should be much easier.

PTC has discussed this internally and there is a plan to consider changes to this window and others like it (Edit Multiple, Create Multiple Activities) for the next major release.

If this is something you are interested in, please vote it up.
