In Candy v1.7.1 when the number of chats fill up the chat window (.message-pane) the most recent chat message at the bottom gets hidden or at least partially hidden by the chat message input field (.message-form). Scrolling the chat window doesn't seem to help. Re-sizing the window vertically (if not already maximized) exposes the chat message.

Using Chrome Version 37.0.2062.120 m

I was able to reproduce the problem in Internet Explorer Version 11.0.9600.17207

I was able to solve this problem by adjusting the default.css file for the message pane in my system.

I couldn't reproduce this problem. So you have more messages in the room than the message-pane is high and at least parts of the message is hidden?
Does it depend on the size of the message or something like that?

Yes, so the number of chat messages has filled up the pane and the most recent message gets hidden at the bottom under the input field. Once another message comes in it bumps it up the hidden message. So if you are chatting with someone you may find yourself one message behind the conversation which is a strange sensation.

The length of the chat message doesn't seem to matter. It's more about total number of chat messages that fill the space available.

default.css:
.message-pane-wrapper {
bottom:62px
}

seems to solve the issue. Tested with Chrome 40.0.2214.93, FF 36.0, IE8 and IBM Notes 9
