Filter Effects pane. . . How do i make box bigger?

i mean the box that has Effect/Connections heading (top, right)



How do i make the effect/connections box bigger?
i have 6 effects and have to scroll down thru them
But the real bad thing, i cant even see the 6
words on the columns on the right
I see the first 2 (i know they're supposed to say "source"
but i only see "So" and part of the 'U" that's it. . . .

there's no handles for me to grab, so i can make the box bigger

what gives?

Never Mind!! I got it to work. . . .

I changed my preferences to floating dialogs,
did a restart, and then i was able to
somehow click life into the box



back to microsode 9, drop shadows

Whilst the box is docked you can grab the bottom of the box and drag it to make it bigger also.
