AdWords New Interface 1024 Pixel Resolution Problem What's Yours

AdWords knows for screen resolutions at 1024 pixels that annoying scroll bars appear on many of the new interface screens such as from the keyword tab, but they seem to be in the dark that 1280 by 1024 resolution monitors are also seeing about 4 inches of a scroll bar appearing horizontally as well.

Please comment if you are having a problem with scroll bars and state what resolution you are having trouble with.

For me on four computers 1280 by 1024 sees a scroll bar across the bottom making the new interface unusable. How about you and yours?

I have linked an AdWords complaint to this post so AdWords can see that it is not just me, but others who are having a similar problem.

Let's help AdWords fix this! So more account managers can actively use the new interface.

I have a tiny bit of horizontal scroll bar at 1600 x 1200.

I will also link to the thread in an Advertiser Feedback Report that I send out each Thursday, Nancy99.

There is a special section in the report devoted to feedback and comments about the new UI - from a variety of sources including WebmasterWorld - and I know the team behind the interface reads it quite closely.

Thanks AWA. I love the new interface but find it impossible to use. You may also want to check out the thread on what users want with the new interface as many comments exist there as well on the screen resolution issue but no one is mentioning their resolution specifically there.

A pleasure - and I am actually including comments from all threads that even just touch on the subject of the new UI in this forum.

Yes, it's a problem in all resolutions. What were these engineers thinking when they were creating this new interface?

If there are resolution issues on a regular monitor I wonder what it is like on mobile devices like an iPhone. Anyone tried this?

I hate to think that at some time we'll see disclaimers on sites:

"Best Viewed in 1680"
