    Calendar Menu Pop-Up Display Errors!!!

     When I click on a recipe in the Calendar the Menu Pop-Up is NOT displaying correctly.  It is NOT including all the DIRECTIONS or they are eliminated all together!  It is NOT consistent though, some show and some do NOT.

    On the recipes that DO include the directions the words are seperated from one line to the next; ( i.e. Mix all ingredients to

    gether).  The line spacing shows this way on the screen (with all the blank space) instead of filling up the line with words.

    Is it possible that there are 'ingredient' and 'direction' limits within the Pop-Up display area? 

    Why is it that some recipes show everything and others don't?  I'm confused...

    Please advise. 

    *This feature is great BUT I just would like it to work CORRECTLY!!!*

    Thanks alot.

    Hi,

    I don't quite understand your first statement:

    When I click on a recipe in the Calendar the Menu Pop-Up is NOT displaying correctly

    Do you mean the on-hovering-tooltip that is supposed to show you a glimpse of the recipe? 

    It's not intended to load and display the entire recipe (this is for performance reasons; doing so would slow the program down a little too much), the tooltip is there merely to remind you of the recipe's contents.

    I mean when you click on the recipe and then it pops up in a window on the left side in the Recipe area.  If it is not intended to load and display the entire recipe then why do some show more than others and why does it print out the way I described in my previous post?  It does seem to me it would slow anything down that much.  When I click on the recipe it shows immediately and I don't see any hesitation.

    Is there any way to include an OPTION (in the Tools area) for the CALENDAR that we could choose so the whole recipe would show? 

    Thanks alot...

    To view the whole recipe, simply double-click on the recipe card in the display, and it'll take you to that recipe's full display.  The popup is simply meant as a reminder as you're planning the calendar.

    I understand!  I just thought it would be handy to see it there thus, saving a step and not have to double-click on the recipe card.

    If you would consider the option to allow the whole recipe to display that would be great too, if not, I will deal with it now that I understand why it was displaying so oddly.

    Thanks again..

    I forgot to ADD that I still would like to understand what determines how much is actually displayed in the Pop-Up area!!  And, again I don't think it would slow down the program enough to matter if the whole recipe appeared.  But that is just my opinion.

    Thanks for listening.
