 BOB:
First off, none of the main (tab) settings windows NEED a scroll bar as they are sized to fit the display.  Unless, you might have the fonts so large that they span off the visible display - this happens on my notebook computer displays, which are wide but not tall.  Try reducing the font sizes and just hit ENTER (even though you can't see it) and see if that helps.

Thank you, guys, for your support of the WSJT-X suite of signal processing programs. I am a big fan of FT8 and FT4 and my observations are based upon early use of 3.0.0-rc1.

1.None of the "Settings" windows have a scroll bar so I can't scroll to the bottom to hit "OK."

2. The font for decoded signals won't change. It is shown as a blank box at the top. When I select (one of very few choices), the box shows the size oif the font. Leaving Settings and coming back in and the font, number one did not change on teh screen for decoded signals and number 2 the Size box is again empty. "Also, why are there so few choices in font size? 

3. The font for the layout changes show in the size box but seem to be lost if I close the WXJT-X application and start it again. The font defaults to the previous setting before the change. 

4, The "Erase" function works backwards from the earlier versions of WSJT-X. The Band Activity window erases first then with a second click on "Erase" the RX Freq erases. This is just the opposite of all previous versions.

5. The large font and the extra line for the band buttons makes the decode windows rather skinny so that I see only 5 to 6 decodes out of a long string on active bands.

6. When I close the application and relaunch it, the "COM" port for CAT control changes to one that is not useful, so I get an error message. Note that my CODEC audio for RX and TX is on the COM port that the program seems to want to assign to the CAT control port. Don't ask me why this is happening although I now notice that same thing happening with the 2.6.1 version of the WSJT-X program. I have no idea why all of a sudden two different COM ports are assigned with, one to CAT and the other to the CODEC audios. 2.6.1 does the same thing as 3.0.0, assigning the CODEC COM port to the CAT port after a restart of the program.

7. You've probably heard of this before, but it is worth repeating: Version 2.7.0 would not allow TX Enable by double clicking on an exchange as follows: (callsign 1) RR73; (call2) (DX call) signal report. This works on version 2.6.1 but is missing with 2.7.0. It is annoying.

Thank you for considering my observations.

Respectfully submitted, Bob Loving K9JU
