If you have a larger monitor you can change the zoom level to something smaller to see even more.
Yes, that's a big part of my complaint - I'm often working at a remote location on my laptop, so a 28" 1080p monitor is not an option. Quite aside from that just being plain ridiculous as a requirement for getting actual use out of an IDE... ;)

For the most part the lines should be easy to follow and you can drag the lines to move them out of the way. You can always rearrange the steps to make the lines not get all messed up, otherwise if you right click on the line you can add an anchor which allows you more flexibility to move the lines around things.
That's very helpful, thank you! I'd tried moving lines around before with no success, but with some more fiddling it seems that the lines that are connected to a step can't be moved but lines that only connect to other lines can be.

When the handler is published a copy is saved to x:\i3\ic\server\handlers folder and then a class file is created. The Class file can be opened via notepad if you are so inclined and you can see it looks almost like BASIC coding where there are a bunch of gotos between the steps. I would strongly caution against trying to edit these class files as you have a very good chance of messing something up and who knows how the system will respond to a messed up handler class file also the changes to the class file would not line up with the ihd file. The reason I bring this up is sometimes I will do a search against the class files to look for attribute names or other useful things.
Very good info, thanks! I shall take your advice to heart - I am not wanting to blow things up, and editing files this way looks like it's on a par with "flashing your BIOS with a custom ROM" level of scary...! :eek:
