is it possible to adjust the size of the Bricxcc templates pop up window (right mouse double click)?
the pop up window is bigger than my screen and I can't see the last bottom line(s)!

Increase the computer display resolution, and then shorten the templates list. You could then resize the display resolution to the correct size, and that should do it for you. Once it is how you want it, it should be proper every time you open BCC afterwards. If my first suggestion doesn't work, then you could make dummy template folders at the end of the list to push the real ones up, so to speak.

Increase the computer display resolution,
not possible!

as I wrote, I want to adjust the pop up window size (or have a scroll bar), not the display resolution!

I know, but I meant to change it temporarily, so you could drag the bottom up, then decrease the resolution back to the original size. It should give you the scroll bar automatically, I think.

Edit: It automatically gives me a scroll bar.

Well, you change it normally, then change it back later. for a Windows OS, you should be able to go to the desktop, right click, and (based on the specific OS), you either click on "Screen Resolution", or you click on "Properties" > "Settings", and adjust it to a larger resolution. Do the same to change it back.

If you can get it to give you a scroll bar, then just make a couple dummy folders.

Open BCC, and go to Preferences>Templates>NXC. Scroll down to the very bottom and make more folders. An example would be something like:
........
MSScoutSetSensorLowerLimit("src", "value");\=
MSScoutSetSensorUpperLimit("src", "value");\=
MSScoutSetEventFeedback("src", "value");\=
MSScoutSendVLL("src", "value");\=
MSScoutSetScoutRules("m", "t", "l", "tm", "fx");\=
MSScoutSetScoutMode("mode");\=
-dummy
-dummy
-dummy
-dummy
-dummy

A new folder is represented by "-name" (where name is the name of the new folder). In thins case, I did "-dummy".
