Larger work screen on calendars
When making a calendar in design and print it is very difficult to see the calendar page you are working on as the screen is so small. It would be nice if it was as big as the preview screen like it use to be.

I agree that it is very difficult to have confidence in the dates you are inputting, even on a very large monitor. Having to go back and forth between the work view and the preview mode is challenging when you are dealing with 365 calendar days. Would love to see this elevated, especially when people are making calendars for holiday gifts.

Yes I totally agreen Fran!

I agree Anne - this is so user unfriendly especially for someone new to Forever! We must have a larger work area for the calendar part to encourage non Artisan people to create their own calendars!

Please make this Create and Print calendar workspace view larger - current view is not user friendly for anyone to actually see what they are making in this current view. Thank you!

I posted about this issue a year ago, and unfortunately my clients are still having a hard time creating their calendars. They consistently tell me the process is difficult, even though they really like the size of the preview screen.
Could we please get this fixed so more people will be able—and willing—to make calendars? I have two clients who prefer working on an iPad, but the interface is so challenging that I’ve had to move them to my computer just to make it a bit easier.
Thank you for considering this update.

I had really hoped this would be fixed by this year. Last year it seemed to be on the roadmap to correct it by this year but other things must have taken priority. It really needs to be fixed. I'm getting more Artisan clients who are switching to C&P and would love to make calendars this way because it's fast and easy. But with the current layout it is not at all user friendly. I would also love to see a few new designs added each year for some variety.

Please! To see anything the user has to go back and forth between the preview and the work area. Improvement would be much appreciated and bring more people to use the templates.

I agree! I just made calendars on behalf of one of my clients and it is difficult to see when typing. I would also love to have the following:
1. Larger type area in calendar box or the ability to move type up or down in the box
2. Other condensed type font options because it is hard to fit something like "Stephanie & Steve's Anniversary" in a box using most of the type fonts provided
3. A Cover Design for the calendar! The FOREVER calendars are a really high quality product, but they look incomplete without a cover. Even the ability to add a title and/or one photo would be great.
4. The option to switch monthly photo layouts around or have a choice, rather than just preset every month
Thank you!

Thanks Cheryl - I agree we need more new designs. I know I have used the same 3 for the last few years. It would be nice to see some new designs to choose from.

It is very hard to teach a new client how to create a calendar when they can't see what they are creating. Going back and forth from the workspace to preview is frustrating for a new learner (and us too!)

We must make this more user friendly if we want to keep new clients who are giving the calendars a try. If it is easier to make somewhere else - the new clients will go somewhere else!
Would love to hold calendar classes but would never attempt it the way it is now.
