Status: offline 		When I try to watch the combat results, I get a window which shows which units were involved, etc. But the window cuts off the bottom half of the display, so I don't see anything but the top handful of ground units or any of the air units. I can pause the display and scroll down the window, but I don't want to do that--I want the window to actually show all of the information during the playback. I don't see any way to resize the window, am I missing something?

1 or 2 seconds, really? Have you actually tried scrolling? The scroll bar is very difficult to select and move, it took me far too long to even try for every battle.

That's why I'm asking that we just be able to see all the info without scrolling...

+1!

The scroll bar is terrible, above all in the CR (and in the editor...)

But we are in the realm of the thousand clicks and scrolls...
