Has any more thought been given to allowing the editing area to be rescaled? It is a big issue when using Page to make a full screen layout. Page itself needs to take up part of the screen, so the layout itself needs to take up a smaller portion while it is being edited, basically zoom in/out of the layout area. and maybe a slider for left/right up/down if zoomed in.
This is similar to Word...word program takes up the full screen, but the document itself can be shown at any scale, from a full page view down to one letter filling the entire editing area.
My thought is: keep the current work area "as is", but not shown. Make a copy that is zoomed in/out and actually displayed--essentially a viewport view.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
That really won't work for PAGE.
However, consider using a dual monitor setup. On the Primary, you could design your GUI in the Toplevel and on the secondary you could place the Menu window, Toolbox, Widget Tree and the Attribute Editor.
Theses days, even the Raspberry Pi 4 supports dual HDMI monitors.
