    Since the site was revamped, I've noticed that when I enlarge the text (contrl+) the page displayed runs off the screen to the right and I have to schroll back n forth :(


    Resolution is 1024 x 768 and seems the best option in Display Properties, so any fixes for this.

    What happened with the old styles? Because you're zooming in on a small resolution not all content will be visible without scrolling.

    No problem with the old styles, could zoom way up no bother.

    I remember this same prob happening with another site when they revamped / upgraded and was told nothing can be done, it seems to be a question of choosing the best resolution overall that suits the majority of customers equipment which is fair enough and unfortunately one size aint going to fit all, if you have older gear or something like that.:(

    The issue is caused by us having a minimum width on the site now. The problem we face is that if we make the minimum width narrower the layout can break on smaller devices. There's a trade off there and we probably haven't gotten it as good as we can.

    I've been playing around with some solutions but don't have one I'm happy with yet. We will try to get to this in due time but I'm sure you can imagine we're very busy at them moment dealing with other issues that effect a larger percentage of users.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
