We are implementing 6.1 and I have run into something frustrating.
(Implementation and frustration, probably not a new combination).
The various units of measure fields on the part master are just a
litle too narrow and will not show both letters if some upper case
letters are used (GM for gram, as an example). It seems to be OK
for the Part Tracker. Is there an easy fix beyond using lower case
letters?

It is annoying that the 2 character field can't show all 2 character
combinations listed in the Vantage Help (shown as upper case),
especially when screen space isn't an issue.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Did you change your fonts back from what Vantage 6.1 has out of the box. We
had to and it cleared up all kinds of things. You have to change them in an
INI file. Someone on the group should remember how to do this. I can look
it up if you need me to.

We are implementing 6.1 and I have run into something frustrating.
(Implementation and frustration, probably not a new combination).
The various units of measure fields on the part master are just a
litle too narrow and will not show both letters if some upper case
letters are used (GM for gram, as an example). It seems to be OK
for the Part Tracker. Is there an easy fix beyond using lower case
letters?

It is annoying that the 2 character field can't show all 2 character
combinations listed in the Vantage Help (shown as upper case),
especially when screen space isn't an issue.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Are you familiar with Customization and Personalization?

Use Customization on the screen and drag the box for Unit of Measure bigger.
Customization = Company wide change.
Personalization = User only change.
