Improve Select Column Dialog: Resizable Window and Horizontal Scrollbar Needed

When using the Select Column dialog (Columns selection window) in Spotfire, there are several usability issues:

  • The dialog window is not resizable, making it difficult to view long column names.

  • The Available columns and Selected columns list boxes do not provide a horizontal scrollbar, so long column names are truncated.

  • When column names are similar or share common prefixes, it becomes difficult to distinguish between them.

Requested Improvements

  1. Allow the Select Column dialog window to be resizable

  2. Add a horizontal scrollbar to both Available columns and Selected columns list boxes

  3. Improve visibility for long column names

    Could you please what is the specific select column dialog you are refering to? A screenshot of the dialog if possible.
