Homepage - Condensed/compact view with less white space
There's a lot of white space on the page. Can things be condensed more please?

Really good to get this sort of detail about aspects of the homepage that you feel could be condensed or removed to help with your experience of the homepage. We're continuing to get an understanding of community interest around this and hear any further detail of where within the page you feel space is unnecessary. Thanks

Agree 100%.
I've recommended in other posts that they need to provide an option for the accounts watchlist to show ALL accounts and to remove the scrollbar. (Ideally, this would be through a combination of a "compact" mode to remove excessive spacing, together with additional vertical* resize capabilities.) Unfortunately, current feedback for both of these options is not being progressed - indeed they don't seem to appreciate the inefficiency the new UI has introduced to people's internal processes and workflows.
I only hope this is fixed for everyone quickly.
* The technical issue they've created for themselves is that they've adopted a grid layout, which means that vertically resizing widgets is now more problematic/difficult than it was before (although not impossible) - especially when the content of that widget can be dynamic as with the account watchlist.

Yet again the graphic designers have been allowed to prioritise form over function - a bug-bear of mine, across a multitude of websites.
I have selected "Compact View" everywhere I can find that option - please give me the option for that to be a "universal" setting.
I previously selected the accounts I wanted to view, and had them all visible at once. Your graphic designers no longer allow me to do that. The table isn't that big that I need the lines to "guide" me across the rows - but the lines mean that I can no longer see everything that I want to see in one glance.
This is not progress - this is change for the sake of change. Retrogressive. -

Less white space around the edge of my screen. I work from a laptop that allows 2 columns that are squidged together in the middle of my screen with a lot of white space either side. I would like to be able to drag my columns further apart. Since there are no borders currently defining each widget, it's very strenuous on the eyes having columns so close to each other.

Why is so much space given to company banners, messages and increasingly, advertising? Please keep this minimal and focus on compact useful information.

Remove the white section under the blue top menu bar. It's not necessary to display the acronym of the business (redundant), the name of the business and last login: <time> hours ago from <location>. It takes way too much real estate on the page and adds little value to day to day tasks.
