I'm on a desktop PC, and use Google Chrome. The initial number of lines in transcription boxes for me varies between 14 and 9 until I hit Save, which I do fairly often. Then it shrinks to only four lines. Have learned that if I hit Accept and then hit Edit to reopen and continue, the original number of lines appears.

You can slide the center of the document left and right to increase the size of your box, which is ok. The amount of garbage at the bottom could be significantly reduced in size. The buttons take up way more space than needed. If you just changed the layout a little, maybe something like this, it would open up more room.

Samantha W Feb 17, 2021 9:22 AM (in response to Heather Castillo)Heather, I agree with your comments! But your transcription box looks huge compared to mine. Do you have a trick to get the box so tall? Which browser is that? Mine only fits a maximum of 7 lines of text.
Thanks!
Samantha

Hi Samantha,
Unfortunately it may be a matter of your screen size rather than browser. Our site design is responsive, meaning it adapts to the space allowed depending on the device/screen you're using. There will probably always be a difference for volunteers with different sized monitors or screens, but we hope we can make the experience better even for users on smaller screens!
Thanks for sharing what you see!
Lauren
