How can I view all 12 months of my budget when viewing in the planning tab?
Currently I can only see January through July and need to scroll to see August through December.
My display shows all 12 months, to you have large fonts ticked off?
Thanks for the reply.
No, large fonts is not ticked off.
Are you saying that there is space in the view that isn't being used?
The budget should resize to fill all of the view (but even column is a fixed size depending on what you have asked it to display between Budget, Actual, and Balance).
I do know that at least in the past there were people reporting that the budget wasn't filling all the space available and has a scroll bar instead.
An image of top part of the budget might make this clear like this:
Apparently the budget is not resizing. All the space available appears to be filled.
Is there a way to reduce the font size?
Is there a setting somewhere to auto fill the view?
I have a 32" monitor plus the 17" laptop screen. Regardless of which screen Quicken is displayed on the same view displays where I need to scroll to see August through December.
For me selecting Budget Only or Balance Only or Actuals only are full screen, selecting Details is Jan-Jun requiring scrolling horizontally to see July-Dec.
Unfortunately, you can't adjust the font size in the budget view.
How much fits doesn't directly depend on the size of the monitor. It depends on the resolution and whatever scaling is being used. If Large Fonts is on this really isn't a "large font" what they really do is scale up everything by about 1.25. The same goes for Windows scaling. If you are at 100% then each then the pixels are used 1 for 1, but if you have Windows scaling of 200% then they scale it up by 2 x, meaning they use two real pixels for every "dot" that is on the screen making up the lines and fonts.
That is a long winded way to say the only way to get more columns displayed is either up the resolution or reduce the scaling. Both of which have the effect of making everything smaller on the screen.
The only real difference between a 17" laptop and a 32" monitor is that because the 32" monitor is bigger, the text is physically bigger for the same resolution and scaling so one might go to a higher resolution or lower scaling.
Personally, I have 28" monitors with a resolution of 2560x1440 with Windows scaling of 100% and "normal fonts" set in Quicken and that is why it all fit on my monitor. Also, I run Windows maximized. Another factor is the size of your account bar. If you collapse it, you should be able to get some more columns in. And like @hmday said maybe you want to change to a different setting other than Details.
Thank you all for the help. After trying different scaling and resolution options nothing changed. Looks like I'll need to continue scrolling to see August through December.
