Vertical Split Screen Option
A vertical split screen, as opposed to the current horizontal split screen, would better utilize the computer monitor's screen space. I could scroll through my list on the left, while easily viewing the order or title information on the right. Currently, I have barely enough room on the screen to view two titles on the top split and still see the order/title information on the bottom split.

Hi everyone
With the recent release of the new checkout experience, we are excited to announce that we will now begin scoping out and implementing a new search browsing experience. This new experience will make much better use of screen real estate and allow you to browse titles in a much more user-friendly manner. We have designed and tested the new concept and received lots of positive feedback from our users.
This will be a large project and will likely take 5+ months to build. I will keep you posted as we reach milestones.

Hello and thank you to everyone who has voted for this issue. As you know, we have been working on this for some time. We are in the process of refining our designs based on our recent Authorize Orders release to make sure they still support today's most common workflow needs. Stay tuned!

Definitely a change that would make a difference!. I can only see half of a title at a time on the upper screen as I always have to adjust the lower screen in order to create an order because I have high prescription glasses and I need to zoom in when using the browser - it's certainly not great!

Gmail, Outlook, and even my ancient Yahoo email account -- All offer vertical split screens for easy viewing. I know they are email accounts, but the same principle applies where you have a list of "something" to sort through and you want to be able to clearly view all the information on an individual basis to the side of the list.

This is a topic the product team has discussed on a regular basis so I'm glad you brought it up here!
I agree that the screen can sometimes get crowded and limit the total number of titles you can see at once. Do you have an example of a similar product where the vertical layout has worked well for you? Would you be open to other layout approaches beyond the vertical layout?
