I continue to struggle with this new set up!

Following suggestion to "press F11" I can now access the bottom part as well as the top part of my tree!

Am still not able to get the "search" button-top right hand corner
of the tree" to work.
It is only half visisble but usually that is enough
I am stuck with my name in the box and cannot look for anyone else in my tree

Any suggestions?!

Does the display fit your screen correctly?

I found the need to make slight adjustments, it depends on your screen size and PC set up too. If you have your settings too wide then certain buttons such ar the search one may be off the screen.

Try adjusting the size by holding down the Ctrl key and moving your scroll wheel up or down until you get the best fit.

I prefer things when the width is adjusted to fill the screen with no left-right scroll bar visible.

I'm finding that, too - the Search button on the tree isn't working for me, either. Not sure why - I assume it's a glitch they don't know about yet.
