Column widths on some screens

It would be easier to view many of the character builder screens if the rightmost sub-column in the middle area was wider. Even when I have the character builder maximized, the left sub-column in the middle area takes up most of that middle area. "Player's Handbook 2" is too wide for the rightmost subcolumn, making any race, class, background, or power from that book take up two line heights. "Player's Handbook 3" and "PH Heroes: Series 1" (and 2) also cause this problem. I can provide a screenshot if it's not clear what I'm talking about.

The "Zoom" function in the preferences section is your friend.

Well at least it is mine on my notebook with it's 10.2" (25.9 cm) 1024x600 screen.

My problem is the other way around. I've got a widescreen monitor, around 15", and no matter what the zoom percent is, that "source" column stays the same relative size.

Agreed, this is a bit annoying. If the columns can't be resizable, then the automatic sizes should be a bit more sensible.
