Matrixx Gui "uiWindow" height limitation

Running MX 7.1.4 on Windows 2000.

I have a GUI that has a main uiWindow and 3 main sub panels (there are also multiple panels within the main panels).
Layout approximately:
______________________________________________
| |
| Main Panel 1 |
| |
|---------------------------------------------|
| Main Panel 2 | Main |
| | Panel 3|
| *numerous sub panels* | |
|------------------------------------| |
| | |
|------------------------------------| |
| | |
|------------------------------------| |
| | |
|------------------------------------| |
...etc

My problem is that even with the GUI at full screen size (on a 21" monitor) the sub panels extend below the viewable area.
I have tried increasing the size of the MainWin (which is type "scrolled") but this appears to be limited to full screen height? I have also tried increasing the size of the Main Panel 2, but that has no effect either.

FYI, the height increase and extended scrolling work fine running on Solaris.

1- Is the height of the GUI limited.
2- Should I be able to scroll if the defined GUI object size is larger then the viewable area?
3- Why does the GUI object behave differently on Windows vs Solaris

thanks

Sorry about the layout.
The posted message appears to have removed the added spaces.

Basically you have 3 main panel: 1 across the top and 2 columns
The left side column has many rows of panels.

Hello,

It is a little difficult to understand what you want and what the problem is. Could you attach a sample script that will demonstrate what the problem is?
Thank you

Hello,

The problem is that it is missing the visibility keyword when defining the MainWindow through the uiWindow command. Adding this keyword solves the problem.
