Can you scroll and make it visible? If so, it is P4.
Michael Can you please provide specific steps to reproduce? If you can, I will have a look at it. I don't have too much time to contribute these days, but if you or someone else can provide with with some simple steps to make it easier to go right to the problem and get to the screen I can more quickly get to the code and fix it. Thanks
Hi Wade This is quite a simple error, I managed to reproduce this myself just by installing some modules I was not too bothered about. Then removed them as normal but y resizing the dialog I was able to see the issue. I plan on trying to have a look at this myself now that I have checked out the code. It seems a relatively easy fix and is a good way for me to try and fix abug and know how the process works.
