I completed a project for a customer that has 158 selections on the recipe screen. The scroll and load buttons are so small that (with my fat fingers) I cant scroll down the screen. I could put a stylus on the screen but that give someone something to poke into the screen. PLEASE!!!! make the buttons larger or give the programmer a way to make them larger. It is unusable as it is if the operator has on gloves or has large hands. The screen is a EA9 10 inch. I called Tech support and was told there is no way to make them larger so, I am asking please on the next software update. Thanks JW

I haven't set up a recipe screen up before, but would the buttons be larger if you had used, say a 15 inch screen instead or are they always the same size?

I am not sure, I have a 15 in stock I will check when I get time. But there is a space issue and cost issue if I have to use a 15 inch screen to make it so the operator can use the recipe screen when the customer only wants a 8 or 10 inch screen for the process/machine.

Yes, I second improving the size of the arrows for scrolling. I carry a pencil around and use the eraser end.
