Strange problem. Two or three days ago a email message box started obstructing the right third of the browser window on every PG Music web page.

I normally use Mozilla Firefox. I tried using Chrome and Edge and the message box shows up on every browser.

I tried clearing browser cache with no change.

Whatever it is it only shows up on the PG Music website and the minimize icon in the top, right corner does not make it retract.

I've run out of ideas to try. Anyone?

Looks like the chat box opening up but not complete. The chat box closes fine for me. What happens if you logout of PG then come back in.

Maybe check to see if you got an unwanted tool installed on all of your browsers. You could check Programs and Features and see if something new is installed there. You could also check the plugin settings on your browsers to see if there's a new tool there.

Well,

After checking options I found one that opened the window to full screen. The window is PG Music's live chat window operated by ChatBeacon.

I've chatted with PG Music and they are aware of an issue and the vendor is working on resolving the issue.

Jim,

I'm having the exact problem on another site. The "comment field" is scrolled off the screen to the bottom and out of sight preventing me from commenting. Same utility in Chrome that you mentioned. I'll try RESTORE then report back.

Unfortunately now the chat button has grown in size and gets in the way on an iPad. It almost obliterates the Top button.

Agreed, I find it way too large. Especially on a mobile device.

Perfect.

Thanx Andrew for fixing this.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

I've found the original problem with the Chat button still exists. If I launch it (inadvertently) the chat screen is displayed but cannot then be closed or minimized. Even navigating to a different PGM forum page it automatically is re-displayed. I have to close the PG Music page in the browser.

I'm used Firefox 75.0

This was the Firefox issue that the original post is talking about, that was fixed. It might require a Ctrl+F5 refresh - could you try that?

Thanks Andrew, yes, it appears it was cached.
Refresh has resolved. All good.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
