Thanks again for the great program!

Minor problem. Very often I want to edit a movie description after importing form the Internet. It's a little bit inconvinient to do this in a small window if description is really big. Is there any way to edit field in bigger window?

BTW, what is "open IME"?

Thanks!

When the main window is maximized the description field is not so small...
You can copy/past the text to notepad if it is really too small :D Or increase the resolution of your monitor (1024x768, or higher, if your monitor and your eyes accept it).

where did you see "open IME" ?

Thank you!

I still think that feature like this:
Mouse double-click on description field - pop-up larger window
will be useful in next version of AMC.

May be in the current version it is possible to realize this on a script level?
Something like "edit movie description" script.
Script command "Input" is not good for this, too small window.

About IME - right click in any field.

This IME thing should be something in your Windows, because I did not put that in the program and never saw that here.

Looks like.

About subject - could you please help me with the script? Do you know a script function for editing field - like Input, but with big window?

Thanks!

In the script you can only call basic Object Pascal functions and what I've added (like the movie title selection, etc...) so it is not possible to do what you wanted, sorry.
