Long notes require scrolling to bottom to see "Edit" link

Hello there,

Before I start, I love the product as hopefully evidenced by my Pro account ;)

When I went to edit a really long note, I found that I was unable to see the Edit link in the Note pane. To get to the Edit link, I had to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page.

From what I see, the Note pane is padded from the top of the browser windows regardless of where you are in a Task List. I assume padding is there so it doesn't overlap with the search field and other items on the right side of the page when you are scrolled all the way to the top.

Due to this padding, if your note is sufficiently long, the "edit" link for the note is below the bottom of the visible area of the browser. This means you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom before you can get to the bottom of the Notes pane and see the "edit" link.

Nothing life threatening, but thought you would like to know. Hopefully I explained it well enough. Let me know if I need to elaborate.

Or perhaps this is working as designed. I figure there might not be a "right" way of doing this, as someone will always think it should work differently ;)

Keep up the *excellent* work! You folks rock!

Cheers,
Chris

Chris, thanks for bringing this up -- it's a very good point :) I think we meant to fix this earlier, but for some reason hadn't yet, so I'll add this to our to-do list.

Long notes now have a scrollbar of their own -- hope this helps!
