Emby WMC | Not scrolling to end of overview text

[Keylonta 0]

On the top level of Emby WMC, why does the overview description not scroll all the way through the text, to the very end of the description?

 

The text that I entered in the overview field of the Metadata Manager is about 4 lines long, in the Emby WMC UI top level, it doesn't scroll to the end of the text, so the last line or two is not visible. Why does it not scroll to the end?

Some views will and others won't.  The detail view should scroll and, I believe there still is, an option to autoscroll it (look in the config pages).

I tested the "Auto Scroll Overview" option in the "Theme Options" tab of the Configuration settings. Is the "Auto Scroll Overview" referring to the details view (play button level)?

 

That option didn't affect any of the other levels text scrolling. And because of all the room for text on the play button level, the text didn't need scrolling, so that option had no affect.

 

By default, some of the text scrolls depending on the view and what level. For example, for some titles in the second level (Coverflow view), the text scrolls only one line, and for other titles in the second level it scrolls three lines, but in both cases, it does not scroll to the end of the text.

 

Then for titles in the third level: Coverflow view does not scroll at all, but List view does scroll; all the way to the end of the text.

What does the autoscroll option do? (Cofig\Theme Options\Auto Scroll Overview)

 

When it is NOT enabled, all levels autoscroll, except for the details view. (Actually, I saw the details view scroll today, but not all the way to the end of the text.)

 

When it IS enabled, there is no change in behavior.
