OK I have an issue I noticed at release. I guess I should have mentioned it then... Better late than never eh?

In WITP and now in AE we have a message area at the bottom of the screen that displays all sorts of useful info during turn resolution. Way back when we all used to play with WITP we used to be able to scroll through these messages with the mouse wheel or using the arrows and scroll bar on the right in between battles. Now in AE since release and now after beta patch. That area is basically frozen. I can't scroll it at all. It only shows a few lines of info and scrolls away never to be seen again as the turn progresses.
Sample picture of the area I'm talking about below...

Now I know most if not all the info that scrolls in that area can be seen or recovered after the fact in reports or what have you after the turn has played out. The only one of those I use is the ops report that lists reinforcements that have shown up that turn. I prefer to scroll up and read the rest of them as the turn resolves itself rather than after the fact.

Is this a bug? Was it intended to be this way in AE? Can we get it changed back or fixed pretty please? I'll send you an unedited version of LSTs signature picture if you fix it!

Look in the save directory. This information is stored in the combat_events logs

Like I said, I know the info is available AFTER the fact when the turn is done. I'd like to be able to scroll and see it as I used to as the turn resolves itself. Not look through directories and files or search combat reports after the turn is over.

Someone look into this pretty please.
