...and I agree.
Context: TIA Portal/HMI = KTP1200 (12" screen)
In the attached redacted image, the values in the white boxes are entered by the operator (+ve or -ve numbers to 3dp).
Although the image doesn't show it, on the HMI, when you tap on a data entry field, the on-screen keyboard that appears has got quite small buttons...even I find it difficult to differentiate between the minus sign "-" and the decimal point "." keys.
QUESTIONS:
1. Is there a way to make the HMI on-screen keypad bigger?
2. Is it possible to connect a larger (possibly 3rd party) touchscreen instead of a Siemens HMI? Would something like this would work?

Thanks in advance.
