Windows 7 IE 10 pre-release Forums issue.

Question
-
Hi,
I have recently moved to IE10 and have found that when reading the Forums all code blocks have the last line or two missing. It looks like the line spacing is too wide so they get pushed below the bottom of the panel and beneath the horizontal scroll bar.
Does anyone have a fix or workaround for this?
Thanks for your help,
J.

I'm losing them at the top. I am always in Fullscreen mode, so my workaround is to toggle Fullscreen mode off and on. Then whatever I was missing at the top is visible. This is new after the recent forum update. I have seen it in IE10 on both W8 and W7.

Any thread will do it. In this one for example the last line of code is always obscured by the horizontal scroll bar. If I zoom out until the code fits and the bar is removed I can then see the line.
Also I just realized switching to Compatibility View gets me round this problem.

You can also see it by Quoting. And in IE you could see it by turning off All CSS, simplest method being View, Style, No Style (Alt-V y N)
But that is interesting the way it works. Select the first line and there is no clue that there is more. If you guess there is more you can drag down and then the whole box turns blue and then dragging down some more you can see that more than just the first line has been selected but that is arcane to say the least.
FWIW that is not what my example was about, obviously a different issue. Thanks for clarifying.

Good workarounds here. I also submitted it as a bug request, just in case. As Naomi mentioned, this is familiar.
Thanks!

I believe this problem has been discussed in the past. I don't think there is a solution rather than try with a different browser.
You may want to report this as a bug. I personally always try to add one extra blank line in my code examples just because I am aware of this problem.
