Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit MASM-I-963 Increase the size of the Location Hierarchy Dialog in Manage.

System Window in Open Drilldown too small to be consistently usable. Merged

The Open Drilldown action available from Maximo/Manage Asset and Location Applications is powerful functionality to understand where an asset or location is in the system hierarchy.   Multiple systems can exist within a site - and often the user has to navigate between systems to view the hierarchy.  

The issue is the System window is too small to work with.   Text displays for about 1.5 systems - but navigating within that window is nearly impossible.   The site I'm working with has 9 systems  - and it is nearly impossible to select anything but the first displayed system correctly.  I repeatedly could not get my mouse to select the right value - which leads to user frustration - and makes the action/dialog not usable.

    Thank you for your submission - have you enabled the updated drilldown control? The window size there should be much better. In System Properties search for mxe.webclient.extendedDrilldown and set it to TRUE. Hope this helps.
