    Description:
    The size of the "1. Requests Info." information box in Borrowing and Lending has gotten smaller in v19.

    Resolution:
    This is a system architecture issue that was previously ignored (the information box size was originally enlarged in a v18 rep_change). The window size has been restored to be in-line with the GUI architecture assumptions .

    Note that the "1. Requests Info." tab is not intended, by design, to be where full information is displayed. Being part of the Borrowing or Lending "Requests List" node, it is meant to be a processing aid, presenting information that is required for the routine ILL work.

    Instead of scrolling in the lower right pane's "1. Request Info" tab (accessed from the Borrowing or Lending left pane's "Request List" display), for example, you can move to the Borrowing or Lending Request node below the "Request List" in the left pane to see the entire information display without scrolling.

    With this in mind, the bor-request-expand form (in xxx40/pc_display_lng) should be configured so that the routinely required information is displayed in the upper part of the form. This will lessen the need to scroll in "1. Request Info" or to move to the other pane for the full display.
