I've downloaded both Term 3.2 and 3.3 for evaluation as replacements for my current comm program, but in both versions the MODEM "panel" under the SETTINGS menu item presents a screen which extends apparently off the bottom of the screen, so that the Save option is unavailable. This prevents me from calling out at all. Apparently every other item on the program works fine; it must be me. Does anyone know what's happening?

It's probably a combination of both your screens font size and using NTSC:Hires Screen Settings. I suggest you switch to NTSC:Hires-interlaced, under the Screen Menu. The flicker is annoying as hell, but the menus all behave a lot better when you do.

It could also be that on a PAL screen it would work as Term was developed in Germany which nearly ONLY uses PAL. another method to get at the bottom of the screen, which sometimes works, is to press the left amiga button and then to press the left mouse button and just drag the screen up. It could be that it won't work with your setup if you changed the workbench pref settings.
