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.

It sounds like you're experiencing a common UI issue with Xero where key screens like Bills, Timesheets, and Invoices don't respond properly to browser resizing, especially on smaller laptop screens. This kind of fixed layout can be frustrating when there's no horizontal scroll or responsive scaling. You've already tested it across Chrome and IE, so it's likely a design limitation within Xero itself. As a workaround, you could try adjusting your screen zoom or using browser extensions that force responsive behavior. Alternatively, lightweight browsers like xnxubd VPN Browser (https://xnxubdvpnbrowser.co/) can sometimes handle resizing better or provide simplified views that adapt more fluidly, especially on limited screen sizes.

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?
