Cut Text

The main reason I hate window'ed mode is that it makes most of the text "cut in half" horizontally. Is there any way to prevent this or do I just need to adjust? (Since not using EQW makes EQ go haywire since I alt tab a bunch.)
 
No, this is the best place to look for answers. Petitioning will get a gm, who will probably tell you to post here. Petitions aren't really intended for helping people figure out their installation issues.
 
having the same prob. When i move the text box it changes what lines have the problem. Generally, assuming optimal placement of the window, I can see alternating lines of text, 1 correct and 1 cut.

Will post system specs when i get home for better analysis.
 
This is a known, old, issue from the earlier days of Live (and SoD on my current computer) when playing in EQW windowed mode. At least a few years ago, no fix was available for it. (And, since it is minor, I have never complained about this one.)

Just a "hey, I also have this issue."
---------------------
In the event someone knows of a fix:

a. Pentium 4, 3.2 Ghz
b. ATI Radeon x600 256 MB AGP (Catalyst 9.3 drivers)
c. 4 GB (2x2 GB of ram)
d. Win XP Home, 32 bit (Mostly fully patched)
e. DX 9.0c
f. 1280x1024 resolution, Windows and "In Game"
g. SoD running in requested directory
h. Error occurs with single or duel logins from the same directory
i. No spell graphics, environmental effects, or targeting ring on as options (If curious, the npc name flashing is what I use)
j. SoD GUI setup with 5 chat windows, error usually affects OOC and Auction in the window provided for this text, but has been found in my "Guild" window as well.
h. SoD is "bound to single processor" (to eliminate any potential hyperthreaded processor issues)
i. SoD played with EQW from SoD
