EDIT Dialog Box - Resize

I feel really stupid having to ask this question, but I have spent the last hour and cannot for the life of me figure this out.
Problem:
I open TOOLS----> EDIT and get the Edit Songs Dialog box.
The dialog box is not complete - it does not show the bottom half of the screen. It is cut off just under the Language and Genre parameters.

I can resize to make it WIDER, but I cannot resize to make it LONGER.

Same problem if I maximize or minimize the screen.

I DID read the manual. It specifically states how to "select the right edge to resize and make it WIDER". The manual says nothing about how to make it longer.

I am running Hoster version 4.32.
Dell Inspiron N7010
Core I3
4 GB Ram
500 GB Hard drive
Windows 7

YES, I did all of the windows updates, and followed all of the the steps to change settings. (Although I will admit that some of these were not completely clear, and the instructions are not exact for windows 7).

Suggestions?
If this ends up being something really obvious or simple, I will be embarrassed. However right now embarrassed sounds better than frustrated.
Thanks

They're working on this and it will most likely be fixed for you in the next update.

In the mean time you may want to try a smaller standard size display setting such as 1024 x 768 or 800x 600. This may make it fit better.

Re: EDIT Dialog Box - Resize

thanks -
changing resolution doesn't help.
is there another way to edit (need to mark as multiplex)? or to delete the song and re-add?

I had this same problem with the edit song dialog box. Changing the screen resolution does not help. You need to change your zoom setting, Control Pannel, Display. Set the zoom to 100%, that should do it. 125% and 150% settings will shorten that partucular dialog box and dosen't show the bottom portion. It worked for me anyway.

Re: EDIT Dialog Box - Resize

Another setting you can try the DPI setting ?

Control Panel/Display /Set custom text size. Try a different setting. I think you will have to restart before any effect takes place.

I don't say this will work but could be worth a try.
