Text speed/text boxes disappear before they can be read

[violetaz]

I'm new to BG, so I'm not sure how to fix this or if it's just a part of the game, but whenever there's a text box at the top (like when you get/complete a quest), it disappears way to quickly to read the entire thing. Is there a setting I need to change or do I just need to learn to read at the speed of light?

Iirc they won't disappear when game is paused. You can read those pop ups in your jourunal too.
