Quick Options Toolbar to Take Priority

It would be great if the UI could be updated to take priority in display order over the palettes docked to the right of the screen. Currently the Navigator and any palettes docked to the right cut down below the Quick Options Toolbar and block the available options on smaller screens. Either stop palettes on the right extending beyond the Quick Options Palette or add an expansion arrow to allow scrolling or a pop up panel to access the blocked options would be great.

Scrolling or pop-up are good solutions but the best is taking priority on the screen.

+1. Constantly having to deal with this issue when staff use AC on a small res screen.

Guy, when you say "small resolution screens", exactly what resolution do you mean?

Happens to me on anything smaller than 1920x1080.

OK, so, if I understand right, it does not happen at 1080 pixel vertical resolution.

Does it happen at 900 pixel vertical resolution? That would be an issue as 1440x900 is the minimum system requirement as per this page:

https://graphisoft.com/us/resources-and-support/system-requirements

(Although 1080 pixel vertical resolution is the recommended even for entry-level systems.)

 

Anything smaller than 900 does not meet the system requirements.

It should work at 900 as it is the minimum, so if it does not, that may need to be reported.
