When displaying pages in split view, aren't the split view borders too thick?

Post by rakunavi »

Hello all,

The split view border when splitting view in PDF-XChange Editor seems a little too thick. For me, who is trying to widen the drawing area by even one pixel by hiding the scroll bar (see this post) and requesting improvements to the shadow (see this post), I don't understand why the border needs to be this thick. Users who utilize the split view feature are likely to be experienced users, so it might not be necessary to make the split view border so thick. Most users would likely prefer that every pixel of the display area be utilized efficiently. If anyone has already requested this, I will vote in favor of it.

Incidentally, in Adobe Acrobat and Foxit PDF Editor, double-clicking the handle in the center of the split view border will cancel the split view. Users would welcome the same functionality in PDF-XChange Editor.

Thank you for taking the time to read this message.

Best regards,

Of course, frequent users of split views can assign hot keys to open and close them.
All best,

Hi,

I will ask our developers if they can "starve" the line a little bit :-)

Hello PHK, thank you for your comment.
Hello Dimitar, thank you for contacting the developers.

Even if the split view border could be made just a little bit slimmer, it would be greatly appreciated. :D

By the way, in the Version History, it should be "Build 10.7.1.399", but it shows as "Build 10.7.1.389". Just for your reference.

Hi Rakunavi,


Here's what our developers said about the dividing line:
We will reduce the size of splitters in the next build.
The removal of the splitter by double-click will also be added.
Regards.
