Advanced Rules with more than one condition are very difficult to enter as you can only see part of the rule when you are typing it in.

Can you make the Advanced Rules field 3 lines instead of one line to facilitate editing ?

This may be a bigger issue for those of us with 4:3 screens. Although I suspect even users with a high res widescreen would have difficulty entering an advanced rule that checks whether the start time falls between two boundary times.

Bounce.

Advance Rules are superbly flexible but hard to edit using the current input field. Any advanced rule with more than one condition cannot be seen while editing. Can you allow the field to scroll or provide a larger field (3 lines).

I'd also like to see the whole rule I'm typing, 3 lines would be great.

Replace your existing ManualRecordings.xml with the attached. This updates the field to wrap, which at least gives you two lines of text. The field isnt big enough to display 3 lines of text you originally requested (and not important enough in my mind to justify a redesign in that area of the skin). If in future I have to create a scrollable field for elsewhere in the UI, I'll also update this field to use it too.
