Try to switch your screen resolution back to 100% percent and try to display the window again. . You keep coming with screen stuff ... But I see this crazy behavior on THREE (!) different screens. Anyway - whatever screen size and resoltion there might be, it can't be not normal behavior that it is...

You should turn on logging to see if there are any messages coming up when it stalls. The option is in File ▸ Options... , under General: Warnings. You will need to restart after saving this setting. And then what? there comes indeed some"not matching .." stuff.. What do I do with that? T...

Now, how doI ditmy sections layouts?
Now, after that window went crazy for so long, it doesn't open at all anymore. Neither,whenI click on "edit" nor when I - as instructed - double-click on secions layout.

what's happening here?

The compile / edit format window was too large and would not reduce so changes could be saved. It also disappeared behind the compile window,. This is an issue since a long time. Whatever the screen size and the scaling is - the window should resize also in height, if we so wish to do. And certainl...

Looks like I've been too early in the mroning *g* In one instance I got the message that the wbsite couldn't be reached ... I updated on 3 devices and always needed more than one try. my dughter did not get to downloadit at all. But just now it worked for her without any hiccup. Perhaps I should sle...

The window of automatic update did open, but then the download remained at 0% and later completely went away..
Via "seach for updaets" i finally succceeded to download the update, but only after a second try.
Might there be something wrong?
My internet connection seems to work as always.

Rotate the screen? *lol* i could install it on my Windowstablet then.There the display rotates autoamtically, when I hold it accordingly ... but at the moment - BETA 34 that is - this submenu window doesn't open at all for me. Whether i click on "edit" or double--click on the section layou...

I had something like that too. Only with LibreOffice.
I was perplexed,how that could happen. I rhought it an error of mine, as this happenend, when working on myrather tiny notebook ..

*sigh
We have this bug since five orsix versions or so.
We already discussed it at lengths, but they just don't file it.
I've run out of ideas, how to get themcome around and acknowledge it as a bug.

To buya second screenis certainly not the solution.

Interesting behavior in Beta 31. Entering the Compile Edit window, I'm in Section Layouts, and I cannot shrink the window beyond a certain point. However, if I click on Transformations, I can shrink the window vertically to about 600 (not sure of the exact measure). If I then switch back to Section...

When you grab the top left/right window corners you should be able to size down the window. Then grab the window title bar and move it up. Does this help? . In BETA30 that beast is even bigger than before. Before I could at least see the upper edge from the bottom space whre the buttons are located...

I confirm that the wring history is completely messed up. Paat ofit - severalmonths - just vanished after the update. It'ssumming up who knows what. as ofthe writing history I worte 5507word non November, 10. 5467 words on November 11. And even 12857 words on November 12. I'd be happy - but actully ...

Still it's not possible to resize the compile format editor window in height. Nieither by trying to grab a corner norgrabbing the top bar.
It resizes only in width.
For more details see:
See viewtopic.php?p=303143#p303143
Nothing has changed since then.

Speaking of laptops ..
I just checked my notebook. The window is too big there, too, and I can't resize in height.

Not being able to resize a window properly is certainly a bug.

@rwfranz: For writing yes, for compiling and editing compile settings the screen height of 768px is not enough to fit all the options. As usual, I found an acceptable workaround: I suppose this should go to https://www.literatureandlatte.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=59477 , about the cut wind...
