HMC with autoscaling windows in all 'screens'

Currently there is no HMC/SE internal alignment that windows do auto scale. As nowadays when working with large screens but the HMC window does not auto scale and works with fixed height of 30 lines, that's not very user-friendly. Hence all windows that are loaded in HMC/SE must support auto scale and do not work with fixed height anymore. As this is already in place for many windows there is still a lack of alignment within HMC overall.

    We are looking at a comprehensive solution for the future. However if you could provide a prioritized list of task that are most impacting we can possibly provide an interim solution earlier for these.

    This is coming from CSP case TS011304754.

    This idea is "under review" since it was created one month ago and customer is asking for an update.

    Could we have an update for the customer, please?

    Thank you.

    We can keep this one open by the customer and close 406.
