Size of box for ASL

[tony41]

Would it be possible to increase the size of the box into which the message is typed in the After Sale Log. The box is so small that only a few words are visible at one time. This makers it difficult to review messages as one types them and before they are sent.

If you hold & drag on the little dots (bottom right) you can stretch the box bigger.

Lol! There's barely a day goes by when I learn something new....

You're welcome.

Thank you cheaver I didn't know that either. If we don't know from the amount of time we have been around then surely newbies won't have a clue ?! Surely it would be more sensible to just make the box bigger in the first place as Tony has suggested - please eBid.

I think this would be unlikely for eBid to do due to the additional scrolling which would be required by phone users.....
it would appear as a huge blank space before they could get to the info they were looking for.

I don't have such a device but this (from a mobile website checker) demonstrates how the ASL box currently looks:

I bow to your technical know how cheaver. If this is the case then wouldn't it be possible to put some wording something like 'Drag to expand box here' for technical dunces like me and anyone new using the site ?!

It's the standard way a multi-line textbox works, so it is not a specific site issue. You could equally say that eBid should spell out how to Cut, Copy and Paste text into the box.
