I am interesting in the following feature. AFAIR there is a capability to paste a text into the message. I find two buttons for it: "Code" and "Quote". For my specific purpose, as it seems, the "Code" more fit. The purpose is for in my message appear a subwindow (like these buttons do) but with a smaller size then text reuires, i. e. subwindow of a small size with scrollbars (especially with a vertical scrollbar).
The reason I want to post a long code, but I think it will be ugly in its original bandwidth. I would like to paste it in a manly sized frame with scrollbars. Is it possible?
(Hope I expressed it clear, sorry for English)
P.S.
Just noticed a lable "Post a poll:" where can I find information on it?
If you are about "Code" button then I have expressed obscure.
Using "Code" allows me to bound the text into the frame, but it remains logn-long (if I paste a long text). I want it appear in a short frame with a vertical scroll bar within. I want to avoid a long-long message.
Yes, it gives a scroll bar, but a horizontal scroll bar.
The most annoying messages are not that, which does not fit by the width, but that, which one should scroll and scroll down in order to simply pass thru (without reading).
Thank you for the attention.
