Dangling compose?
I have one game in which the compose tag hangs down into the posting area in an irritating way. I checked my various games, and it is only the one. It's not horrible, but it does get in the way a little bit. Does anyone know what causes that? And this there a way to fix it?

Thanks...

I'm not sure what you mean..I know the  'color' box  and such hang down.. i hit the  'ok'  button to get it into the body of the post.

 I'm sure some of the more 'tech' members   will have ideas.

I screen printed it, but this page doesn't take images.

It's likely a weird formatting issue due to something else being more characters than usual or some such.

You can't post images in this forum, but you can (I believe) post URLs to the image itself on whatever outside site it's hosted on.

That might help in identifying the element that's causing issues.

Thanks.

Oh, that's interesting. While I am not familiar with this particular site's design, I can tell it is part of the page. Apparently it makes the compose window larger or smaller.

But you can change the size of the compose window manually via the resize corner at the bottom right. Just pull the width of the text window in until it doesn't overlap the compose image anymore.

Interesting that it does that on your computer. I resize mine and the text area will render over that image. In your case it appears reversed.

What browser are you using?

Firefox. But it is only on this one game. Your fix works though, grab the corner, never knew the windows did that, thanks.

Mods, please close this thread.

I'm wondering if there's a particularly long name in that "insert a private line to" dropdown list which is causing it to be wider than normal, which is causing the composition text area to expand out improperly.
