I have found that messages are not being fully displayed. Only the first paragraph or so is shown. I have tried using different browsers, and I have searched unsuccessfully for an option that might be controlling this behavior. I do wish to see the full message, not just the top part.

What can be done to correct this behavior?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Can you give us a screenshot showing this effect? As far as I can tell messages are displayed correctly on all browsers and all computers I have access to.
 
Not a behavior I have seen or even heard about. RJ, tell us more about it. I would look towards your system as the culprit as opposed to anything to do with the site, so let's see if we can figure it out.

During the message creation look below the editor for "manage attachments".
 
1] When you see the problem on your screen, press the PRT SCRN button. This will capture it to the clipboard.
2] Open some picture editor of your choice and PASTE from the clipboard. Save the pic.
3] Now, compose your message and add the attachment.
 
I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
