Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The follows textboxes often can't show the full name:

• Chairman
• Initial prayer
• Aux Counsellor 1
• Aux Counsellor 2

Describe the solution you'd like Shrink the width of the following text boxes:

• Note
• Bible reading for week
• Opening song

To increase the space available for other textboxes with names.

Describe alternatives you've considered I don't see any alternatives

Additional context Textboxes in the blue outline to be enlarged and textboxes in the red outline to be shrink.

I concur that the width of the drop-down lists is suboptimal. The issue arises when the window is at its minimum size; the notes field becomes quite small. We need to reorganize the controls to ensure they function well at the default window size.

I am open to ideas!

Here is a first attempt:

A second attempt with a slight difference:

@cengizu

I want to thank you for all your hard work in putting together a proposal. It was not an easy feat by any means! 🙏

I have made some minor changes and taken on board some private feedback from @stecchio66 .

This is the current layout:

• The Student Bible reading material is to be moved out from the Materials window.
• We have scope to further adjust the widths of the name drop-lists. Just tell me what you think. 🤔

I have decided to simplify things further. This lefthand side will now stay the same size when the window is maximised. The viewing area is enlarged instead. Example:

I am still working on interfacing the new changes into the editor.

@cengizu @stecchio66 I will permanently disable the additional Bible Reading controls. Only the first set need to be enabled for setting the study point, material and time.

• The controls for class 1 / 2 could be automatically kept in sync as changes are made for the Main Hall assignment.
• Or, we don't show the material etc. for class 1 / 2. But then we have a lot of wasted space.

@ajtruckle

Additional Bible Reading controls can remain, but disabled for reference only. They provide a visual reference for users and fills the gaps. The first control is for user input, the other controls will be mirroring it.

Additionally, slight improvements could be made to the layout of the controls so that there is more symmetry and alignment. OCD Alert! 😁

@cengizu @stecchio66

I have standardized all name controls wo be 100 pixels wide and done some minor changes to alignments.

Are you referring to the TFGW section specifically, or was that a general statement? I ask because I have made some refinements, as shown in my video.

@ajtruckle

it was before you posted the video. It looks better now.

New Weekend Meeting window:

Other Improvement:

• Notes and Images are now available via hamburger buttons.

[ajtruckle]

@cengizu @stecchio66

Idea:

Both editors would be the same.

[cengizu]

Looks good 👍 Midweek Editor

Weekend Editor

In my tests of the last beta I noticed that although I entered 2 auxiliary classes in the student assignment window, the fields were not enabled.

[Fahdeya]

I faced this too. But the Classes field was set to 1 instead of 2. And the names that were previously assigned to the 2nd class were dimmed. When I change the number of Classes to 2, it works properly

[ajtruckle]

@stecchio66 @Fahdeya I forgot that I still had the original Aux Class 1 / Aux Class 2 checkboxes on the editor. They were set to be hidden. I have now removed them from the application and think this issue is resolved. Sending you new betas.

[Fahdeya]

It seems that there is still something wrong. When I installed the new update for this version, the Classes field is set to "1" and not as it was. It was "2" 03 May-June.MWB.txt enclosed it the file that I open with the new version

[ajtruckle]

@Fahdeya Does not seem wrong to me. Looking at your first week you only have one class. You don't have two classes. And when I click the button to display the students, you again only have students for one class.

Please keep in mind that the Classes setting is specifically for the number of auxiliary classes. The main hall audience is not included in this count.

[stecchio66]

Sending you new betas.

@ajtruckle It seems to work well for me.

[Fahdeya]

I am saying about week starts from 6-12, we have two classes, there in the old edition the Classes field text was 2, now it is 1.

Also, all the weeks that have 2 classes are now set to 1, while the weeks that has one class is set to 0.

It seems that this is because you have added value "0" to the list. So, "1" becomes "0", etc...

[Fahdeya]

Thank you Andrew for making it clear to me. There is no problem for me now.
