Tech tree box questions

[MeteorPunch]

What makes this happen where the icons spillover. Is it just canceled buildings as shown?

And a second question...is there any good techniques to manipulate box sizes to stay the same for different nations who have different numbers of "stuff" gained from techs? My plan currently is to place the arrows a decent distance away so that a large box and small one will both be pointed to (with a small gap in between an arrow and a small box). Just wondering if there's a better way.

The spillover is from cancelled wonders I believe, I had that problem myself. I know it is not from new units or new buildings because for those they stop on the 2nd row and the rest don't show. It's a pain, I don't know how to correct it in any way.

You might be able to do something with the techboxes.pcx, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

You could make the graphics for the techboxes blank so they don't matter in game, and then put un-resizable ones directly on the tech tree in the positions where the techs would be.

I think that your problem may be solved if not as many techs were to expire upon discovering flight....just a guess...

as to the second question, I think you've nailed the solution. Another way to do it is to put the arrow at the end of a continuous line that goes through (behind) the tech boxes.
