    Hi John,

    would that be possible to enlarge the length of the body field so notifications don't get render over multiple lines when longer than 66 characters, in my case.

    Thx

    Hi Richard,

    The ncid window can be expanded and the new size saved. Every notification is actually one line that wraps. When I expand my window full screen I still get a little line wrap on notifications.

    Hi John,

    I'm not talking about windows size. If I look into ciddata.log, long notifications are trunkate into smaller parts. Am I correct to beleive that field size for the message itself is set to 66 or entire lines set to 140? If so, can it be expand?

    Richard,

    The ciddata.log file shows the messages as they were received. The server does not truncate them. SMS splits a message into multiple messages when it is sent if it is too long.

    John,

    my understanding then is mobile applications re-join them on receiving since when I read them on my cellular, they are render as a unique message. Is that something you could add to your whish list as a future feature?

    Yes I can add it as a wish list, but my Android phone does not recombine them. It displays them the same way as NCID. MMS does not have the limitation on message length that SMS has. Maybe some of your messages are MMS?
