HL on netbook size question

I have HL installed on my netbook.
When I bring up the program (Pathfinder rule set) I cannot see everything on the screen. There is no scroll down to view what their Save Throws are, or other information further down. So I cannot benefit from having the character's information right at my finger types on the one tab. I have to click through the tabs and try to remember where it is. So it slows me down greatly when using this as a GM tool.
I have messed with the resolution on my netbook, but as most know you have a lower res on netbooks, so that has not helped.
Any tips or suggestions??
Thanks!
 
Thew new v3.7 of HL is coming soon and should have exactly what your looking for. Until then I don't really have any ideas to help..

Scrollable tabs: Running Hero lab on a netbook or laptop is easier than ever before, with new scrollable tabs - instead of trying to squeeze more and more information into the same tiny space, tabs will now scroll when necessary.
 
As ShadowChemosh said, the scrollable tabs feature should resolve this. I know for Pathfinder there are height issues on the tab for certain complex classes; are there other tabs that we should take a look at too?
 
I'm running HeroLab on an Asus Eee Netbook that's 1024x600 and not having a problem (or maybe its not a problem until I get more items/abilities???). I hide the task bar automagically and run it full screen.

I would be nice to have a button (like the one in the top left when you are on your minion but pointed to the right), on the divider that would make the "In Play" area on the left take the full width instead of using the tabs. Then press the button and then back to the current view.
