Xero - Resize in conjunction with browser window

When resizing my browser window, many of the Xero screens (including Bills, Timesheets, Invoices) do not resize. Instead they chop off on the right hand side. There is not even the option of a slider to get over to the right.

I have tested this across two browsers IE and Chrome. Frequently I am working on a laptop with a small screen and this is really annoying. I would rather they scale up or down when I make my browser larger or smaller.

    Even on a large monitor, screens do not resize to fit the browser window. I use Xero at 80% sizing in a web browser and it does not resize correctly. It is particularly noticeable on the Account Transactions screen where there is a lot of white space.

    So, my request to be able to resize widgets on the currently-in-beta homepage has been combined into this feature request, but I actually think they are 2 different things from a dev point of view.

    The original request here has to do with responsive website design. It's about the website detecting the device on which you're viewing it & responding as needed.

    My request was about user experience in terms of how *I* want to size & arrange the widgets on the homepage. Some of the widgets I want to be smaller or larger (or simpler v more complex in terms of data shown), regardless of which device I'm using.

    Please either separate these requests back out, or make sure the dev team is addressing both distinct aspects of this now-combined feature request.

    Please just reduce the minimum space between columns when shrinking a window. I don't want the browser window to take up my whole screen just so I can see the invoice with out scrolling left to right.

    Xero is great if you are using a large widescreen monitor - on a small laptop, not so much. It would be really helpful to have a "compact" switch allowing less thant the current large amount of white space between columns etc. and the possibility of fitting in both the Xero window and another window (excel or bank) on the same screen!
    Or just reduce the minimum space between columns when shrinking a window?
