Your Thoughts on: First Real Issue with MT

Hi Farron,

very good point ... although I can't say as I have had (or noticed) that problem in Opera (my default browser). At least I don't recall having it with MT - but I have definitely come across that problem before on other sites; i.e. the bottom of a page (usually popup) is cut off.
If the window itself cannot be maximized, then what I usually try (and it usually works) is use the ARROW DOWN key, and that will scroll down the page (acting as the missing scrollbar). Whether that works in Moz I don't know yet.

Hey Britta,

Thanks for the thought. I will try it in Opera. [I flip flop between the two for primary..lol] Doesn't seem to work in Mozilla 1.3.1 over here though. I just tested and nothing, zip, nada. Still an unusable popup. :-(

Uh huh.. not in Opera. I do all my MT work from Opera.

Yep, I recall a window pop with the buttons out of view, and when you drag it up it's still longer than the display and won't drag above your toolbars..
BUT F11 toggles Full Screen, just like it does in IE, and even tho you don't see a scroll bar it still works. Most of the time those windows have the resize buttons available in Opera 7.

The Rebuild window is not one of them by the way.

The F11 and using the hidden scrollbar works in NN 7, so I assume it will work in Mozilla too. :-)

Just being helpful. grin.

Oops, forgot to mention something on the buttons in the Entry window:

I haven't seen them either. But I have a link to a "fix" whereby you can define your OWN buttons to insert what you like. I'll dig it out later and post it on my blog. It's probably already there in draft mode. I'm lazy. grin
