    Column headings displaying incorrectly?

    When you look at the areas in the histogram display you can see that the column headers AS WELL AS all the data in the cells is not showing all the way, kinda like its not "maximized", even though it is. Like some of the cell or column is "cut off". I'm not sure if this is a hptuners issue or not, but all the other programs including excell spreadsheets and such do not look like this. can anyone help me out?

    I'm having the same problem. I tried every screen setting and it always cuts off the bottom of the numbers.

    Hmm.. it might have something to do with the theme you're running. Can you e-mail me your theme so I can try it out?

    No e-mail on my laptop.

    Played around with every possible theme/font combo and came up with this.

    Your window borders are mammoth huge.

    The first snapshot was windows classic normal font & normal font in vcm scanner.

    The second was windows xp exlarge font & exlarge vcm.

    The third is default xp - which is normal font - & exlarge vcm.
    With normal in vcm - more of the bottoms are cut off.

    The same thing is occuring on my pc at work. Windows XP Pro.

    Out of all those choices the x-large is best.

    In the last few minutes (while watching the race) I removed the vcm program and downloaded it again - still the same.

    Also, the same thing is occurring on my desktop PC.

    1680 x 1050 currently

    There are five settings down to 800 x 600. I tried them all. Five settings with 3 font settings each in windows and the 4 vcm settings about 60 some different combos.

    Best results were the last snapshot.

    1680 x 1050 windows xp normal font with x-large font in scanner

    I was wrong when I stated my desktop pc had the same problem. The scanner tables are fine on it.

    My laptop is a widescreen...

    Must have something to do with that.

    Thanks for the input!

    My windows xp home has 2 themes classic & xp. Even when I change the screen setting to 1280 x 1024, which is a non widescreen setting, I still lose part of the bottom of the heading and the numbers.

    These are my choices.

    Played around with a few then applied - lots of border and text changes but no changes to the histogram.
