Can't choose directory for netlist files

JMinCV
JMinCV over 11 years ago

When netlisting from Design Entry CIS for the PCB editor, the dialog box is drawn with the right side of the box including the browse button for the Netlist Files Directory obscured.  It's a major painto have to type an absolute path into the box which not coincidentally doesn't show the whole path.   Resizing the window does not cure the issue, nor does changing tabs to try to force the window to redraw.  Another consequence is that the radio button label for Place Change Components Never is obscured in the same manner.

This is a new behavior since installing 16.6 on Win7 64 bit. 

 Is this a known problem?

The screenshot below shows the result after dragging the window wider.
