Hi All,
When I go to the "Lookup" Tab on Log4OM to find the details on QRZ only a small portion of the display appears ?
NOT on every call sign but a lot of the lookups.
I am a subscriber to QRZ page.
It never did that before.
Any suggestions ,Please HELP
regards
TEX VK1TX

As I've noted same behaviour, I believe he means that when you lookup a callsign, the rendering of the QRZ.com page is wrong: the frame containing biography tab is quite short and there is no scrollbars. The other tabs are indeed right, only the biography seems affected on my Windows 10 Home laptop....

I don't see the problem. On my Win 10 all is OK. I do not understand. Sri

A couple of years ago I was also having some display issues for the call-sign look-up. I started using the external browser.
Reading this thread got me to try the internal link and found it is working just fine.
I have a crowded screen as I'm using a laptop for my ham radio work and do not have a larger external monitor, but all is working fine. I using Windows 10 (latest updates) on a rather mature Dell D830, but have upgraded the memory to maximum and installed an SSD this past spring as well.

If I browse to G4POP Qrz page, in the biography tab there is a frame containing two pictures (boat and code of conduct) and more text.
If I do the same from the Log4OM internal browser, as you can see in my attached screenshot, in the same tab I can only see part of the boat picture but as the frame has no vertical scrollbar there is no way to reach the text under the pictures.
It seems like the vertical size of the frame is wrong : the frame is complete, as there is also the "last modified" row at the end, but it's too short.

This is a long debated issue. The "default" component for browse included in .NET framework is outdated. No. It's not outdated. It's prehistoric.
My search for a compatible component, free and more updated to be included in Log4OM failed miserably some months ago.
I'll start another search for a suitable WINFORMS component for C#. If anyone use something like... feel free to suggest
