Currently, the on-screen text size in schedules is some of the smallest on-screen text in Revit. When using custom fonts the text can become even more difficult to read.
Provide some means to adjust the on-screen text size in schedules, separate and distinct from the printed text size. Enabling middle-mouse-button pan and zoom controls -- identical to model and drafting views -- would seem like a reasonable approach.
Screen resolutions are getting higher and higher and my eyes are getting worse over the years. I can hardly read the text in schedules. But there's no way to increase the font size.... Now you CAN set the font size for Temporary Dimensions. Broaden that to Schedules and other dialogs with lots of text.
There is another request like this already, but yes something needs to be done about schedules and font sizes as well as the ability to control how it is sized on a layout. Even with the minimal amount of items a panel schedule is riduciously huge.
I totally agree that the ability to zoom in a schedule would be very useful. This is even more needed after the schedule tool was changed to make the column widths on the sheet affect the column widths in the schedule view (a few versions ago).
I still think that adjusting the column width on the sheet should NOT affect the column width on the schedule view, or vice-versa. The widths of the columns in those two views serve two different purposes. On the sheet, the schedules should be readable when printed and they should look well formatted. On the schedule view however, I typically want all my columns to fit on my screen (if possible) so that I can use them for QC or analysis -- regardless of the width on a sheet.
Too often I have to pan left & right, and left & right in a schedule view to read the data in a schedule. Adding the ability to zoom the schedule will reduce that.
Maybe the column width being tied to sheets could be an option (like conditional formatting printing or not). Even better, it would be really nice if the Ribbon offered a Working View toggle/mode. This could allow hidden parameters to appear and unique column widths. We would not need to have separate "working" schedules as many currently do. On the Appearance tab, next to the Hidden option there could be a nested option called "Show in Working Schedule Mode". This would be very helpful!
Changing the text to WYSIWYG in 2017 was nice. If they applied that to schedule views, so they would appear the same while we edit as they do on sheet, it would eliminate a lot of headaches. Not being able to see all the text in a field, having to scroll through the text in the fields, etc., is really inefficient. Why not render schedules the same on sheet and in editing mode?
