Problem - MQ Window quit displaying Data

[Vrakenor]

Hi all

The title tells it all. A couple of strange behaviors to outline first.

1. This just started happening recently.
2. Only happens to 1 character/account.
3. Works fine when I log in, then stops working when I zone or teleport.
4. All MQ functions still operate correctly, in other words I can still play the character.
5. MQ window itself is still there, but no scroll bar showing previous data.
6. When MQ window is selected by mouse click I can type in the chat bar of the window, but doesn't display anything.

Is there a command to re initialize this window? I don't recall doing anything that had anything to do with MQ settings recently. I am stumped. Can anyone help a brother out please?

1. Are you trying to use mq on a true ix server?
2. Are you displaying your map with 1 million things displayed? Eq has a limit of stuff it can dram, try closing your map

Thanks to both of you for your fast replys. I do have my map open most of the time on this character. I drive with this guy. BTW what is an ix server? Did you mean an EQ server. I play on FV just in case your curious.

Just wanted to follow up on this as I have found some work arounds for these problems. For future reference.

1. The MQ window going blank. Found the answer totally accidentally. Open the EQ menu, click on MacroQuest (top of menu), then on settings, click down down arrow of plugins, click on ChatWnd, use the + or - buttons to change the font size and presto the MQ window repopulates. I have no idea why or what causes this, I just deal with it lol.

2. Map being on or off doesn't seem to have an affect at all. I started to turn off my map to the point of just turning it on to check direction. Made no difference I still had the problem. Now I just leave it on like before, and deal with it. Sometimes it goes 4 or 5 zone changes and sometimes it happens right after I log in. Shrug. So apparently it is not ROCKET APPLIANCES after all lol.
