Is it possible to make the settings boxs larger? I cant see whats already in the boxes and what i'm typing.

Thank you,

Cameron

It may be possible, but within the constraints of the widget this may be difficult to do without causing collisions. Currently I am unable to access the TinyG workspace to see if anything has changed, I'm afraid I've been away for quite a while. Would it be an acceptable solution to allow the widget to be "maximized" into a sort of modal popup that gives more space to layout components so that each component is more easily viewable?

Yeah thats what I was kinda thinking why it was the way it was. In the tutorial video it seemed easier to see. Something must have changed since then. No problem I know how that can be! Yes a “maximized” popup would be prefect. Or I was even thinking of doing away with the inch/mm sign next to each input box cause the units of measurement are already selected and make the boxes bigger. I don’t even know where to begin on doing something like that myself, so I definitely appreciate your help! What’s every easiest.

Thanks again,

Cameron

That was something I struggled with myself, I was developing it on a pretty low-resolution screen and I did my best to fit everything, but professionally I am an embedded systems engineer, so web development is quite a large jump from what I'm used to. I believe it should be a simple matter to make a new layout which can handle being in a bootstrap modal, I'll have to get back into that space and see how that is done.
