- The comments box has a maximum height that depends on button sizes and fonts.
- The height of the first row grows once the comments box has expanded to its maximum height.
- The cover is displayed in the resulting box preserving the aspect ratio.
It is the "height of cover box == height of first row" that is causing the problem. I changed the dialog to remove that restriction by turning the third column into a single pane ignoring rows. The cover box consumes as much height in that pane as the formats box permits, usually giving the cover more vertical space. See the attachment. Whether this improves things for the OP depends on the monitor height and the cover aspect ratios. |
A couple of things I tried were.
- I resized the window height beyond the monitor to see how it would react. The 2nd custom column was the only box that changed, The cover only slightly.
- I resized the width to pass into the second monitor. I also note that it only let me drag the size minimally height wise before reaching maximum however let me go full width of 2 monitors width.
My formats box on my end could be the issue, the size when in default view is vastly smaller. When in All on 1 tab it takes up half the screen height.
