    Hi

    Two (very) minor issues in Podium 3.2.4:

    1. I run Windows 7 with the font scaling set to 110%. Podium adapts to this very nicely except for the main Setup/Preferences dialog which overflows the available space.

    2. The Shortcut Keys guide insists on using Internet Explorer when all other actions involving web-based content open the default system browser (in my case Firefox). I would prefer to not have to use Internet Explorer at all.

    Apart from that it’s all good.

    Opening the main Podium guide uses the default browser, and the shortcuts section is right at the end/bottom. I’m not sure why the menu link to shortcuts defaults to IE – maybe it’s something to do with linking to a part of a html document perhaps? I dunno.

    Thanks. This is now fixed. There were a handful of other dialogs that didn’t scale properly as well.

    I have Chrome as my default browser, and I would also prefer not to have IE open. The default way to programmatically open a URL unfortunately does not work when a # anchor is included. So Podium calls iexplore explicitly with the url. In a future update Podium could try to look up the users default browser in the registry.

    Could the shortcut guide not be a separate file? This would sidestep the anchor issue and it would also load faster.

    It could, but it would mean a bit more work for me maintaining it as separate documents. I have a hope that in a future update I will be able to show the HTML inside a window in Podium rather than having to open a browser app.
