Text buffer / tilde key - max 3 lines
« on: March 19, 2008, 05:20:07 PM »
Starting with the last update, and continuing with today's, I am no longer able to expand the text buffer to 16 lines.  I checked key mapping, and it's okay.  Anybody else see this? :huh

Hey Panzerr I also have the same problem. I have had it for a while and can't figure it out. I chalked it up to a Laptop problem.  :(

When you say it's mapped, what AH item is mapped?  Have you tried mapping it to a different key and seeing if that works?

Hi Pyro -

The original AH mapping uses the tilde key to expand the text buffer.  I unmapped and remapped the tilde key, and tried mapping the expand function to a different key, then remapped to the original tilde key.  None of these variations expanded the text buffer.

Tell me the name of the function that you're mapping.

Pyro - To answer more accurately, "Message Window Size" is the AH function name which is supposed to be mapped to the tilde key.

Try going into your Aces High II folder and rename your "settings" folder to "oldsettiings".  This will take you back to a default installation and that will tell us whether it's some inherent problem that's surfaced or just a configuration issue.

Okay - so I'll be a couple minutes late....
I renamed the folder and reloaded AH.  Same thing - no message window size expansion - still 3 lines max.  Now I really have to go!
Thanks again :aok
