Show Project Statistics Plug in behaving oddly

Following a recent Topic, I have downloaded the '
Show Project Statistics' plug-in and used it on a couple of Projects with the results as shown in the Attachments - 'Plug in 1' and 'Plug in 2'
The first is about 1/3 of the screen and allows me to select options on the bottom menu, the second fills up the whole screen and has no menu at the bottom.
Any suggestions.
Regards
Roger

Roger, that is indeed odd.
I need to check a few circumstances associated with running the Plugin.
From what you say, it sounds like it is the first time you have ever downloaded and run this Plugin.
So initially for each Project, it should have opened a Help & Advice window behind the statistics window.
It seems you have closed that Help & Advice window in both cases before taking the screenshots.
Are the two Projects running in exactly the same environment in the same Account on the same PC?
The Plug In 1 case should have started out looking exactly the same as Plugin In 2.
But the Plug In 2 screenshot seems to be using a slightly larger font with greater spacing between lines.
I presume the edges of the window cannot be dragged to a smaller size.
One workaround is to change the button in focus and press Enter to invoke the button.
e.g.
Hold down Shft key and press Tab key to move focus left from the Close & Report button.
One Tab press moves focus to the Help & Advice and two Tab presses moves to the Set Window Fonts button, et seq.
Try using the Set Window Fonts button to reduce Body text Font size and use the Minimum Size button.
Or five Tab presses will allow the Update Statistics to be invoked.

Thanks, Mike.
Problem resolved.
Both projects were/are running in the same environment,and I had used the Plug-in before on one of them . This is the one which i designated Plug-in 1. When I initially clicked on it yesterday, it advised me to update from Version 1.9 to Version 2. I did this. The Project with Plug-in 2 had never used it before, and did have the Help and advice behind it.
Following your advice, after I hid the bottom Toolbar, I could just see the Menu Bar which allowed me to open the Set Windows Font. I reverted to Default Settings and Minimum and everything is back to normal.
Thanks again.
