Please consider adding a scroll bar to the selection window in the lower left of the game screen.

Once you start getting status messages at a colony much of the data is forced off the bottom of the screen.
So once you see a "Colony recently raided line" and a line or two of "Construction stalled..." then in standard display you can no longer see the Troops line or anything below it. Expanding the Window adds the Troops line and the top pixel or two of the line below it.

A different but related issue;
A few times I have had empires offer a trade
"We offer you AAA Mining station, and BBB station, and CCC station, and DDD station, and..." then the message cuts off for excessive length. If I then want to see what they trade FOR. I have to use the counter offer just to see what they wanted in the first place. (In the above case it was Trade Sanctions against a third party.)
