Adjustable Window Sizes within Admin Console
It would be nice to have the ability to adjust window sizes within the console. As an example, the Membership rule window in the collection properties only has enough room to show 2 lines. Being able to maximize or edit to a custom size and have the console remember these sizes would be great.
This could be incorporated into the fixes that are being introduced with the High DPI resolutions.

Doing this everywhere in the console would be expensive/difficult. Rather than wait to make any improvement until the time we can fix it all… I’m curious what the top 10 most important places to fix are. I’m thinking we fix those first, and then go from there.

It would've been nice to have the ability to resize the new "Enter a PowerShell script" window to chech that everything looks good. The default windows is quite narrow. Maybe add som nice colour formatting to get a better overview.

There are many properties dialogs in SCCM that are not resizable. Please allow all windows to be resizable. For example, the Active Directory Discovery options its difficult to see the entire distinguished name.

Please allow at last, that this window can be scaled by the user himself. The scrollbar is uselessly

Automatic Deployment Rules - Preview Updates window should be resizeable.

I combined suggestions from comments and added a couple others.
Collection Window Properties
Active Directory Discovery Properties
Query Rule forms
Boot Image Properties
Device Properties
User Properties -

Agree with James. By far the most glaring and painful problem place that this happens is the Membership rules tab of Collection Properties, where you can never see more than two rules at a time.
There's a ton of empty space on that window too, so you wouldn't even necessarily need to resize the whole window (though that would be nice), just letting the list box take up all of the empty vertical space would be such a quality of life improvement.

I would be happy with just collection properties. Specifically, be able to see more than 2 membership rules at a time.

Open any wizard on a surface pro in an RDP window. Pick that one...

1. Query Rule forms. 2. Task Sequence Editor should "remember" last-used metrics.

Allow the Device Properties dialog box to be enlarged to allow admins to view the tabs with wide content, such as the Deployments Tab in particular. Also for the Deployments Tab reduce the default width of the "Program" and "Type" fields as they generally waste a lot of column area with blank space.
