Cannot read the full name of my backups in 2016

Thread needs solution

One of the things I hated about the 2014-2015 GUI was that the column that listed all of the backups could not be widened, and the font was so huge that backup names longer than about 17 characters could not be fully read. I learnt to live with that flaw because at least when I clicked on the backup I could read the full name of the backup along the top of the main window.

Along comes 2016….same crap backup list column that can’t be widened, but this time there’s an added surprise! Now the full name of the backup has been removed from the main window! There is literally no way to read the name of the backup, unless you select rename, and even then you have to scroll along the name to read it.

Ofmg guys, seriously. Who is in charge of the GUI design there? Please sack him/her and employ someone that has a clue.

This problem was pointed out many times during the beta testing for ATI 2015 and ATI 2016 but nothing changed!

What is going on in their development department, seriously.

It's such a shame. I loved this product. I recommended it to many of clients that were home users (I'm in the computer repair and installation industry), but I can't put my reputation on the line anymore by recommending this product. It just gets worse with each successive version, ever since the new GUI.

Time to find something new for myself and my clients.

Mark,

This might help temporarily.
