Topas - CPU count inconsistent across LPARs

thanks for looking.
turns out it was really dopey, it's about the size of the window that topas is running in. it apparently thinks 24 rows isn't enough to show more than 2 CPUs. stretch it to 48 and it shows all the CPUs, consistently across all the LPARs I tried.
Bad design ? They say the window is scrollable, so why display misleading data...
Curses, foiled again !

WMSMPMON(1) General Commands Manual WMSMPMON(1) NAME
wmSMPmon - Window Maker System Monitor SYNOPSIS
wmSMPmon [options] DESCRIPTION
wmSMPmon is a Window Maker dock application that displays the following information about the system: - Current CPU utilization of up to two CPUs - Up to two minutes history of CPU utilization - Current memory usage - Current swap usage On dual CPU systems, wmSMPmon has three different styles for the utilization graph. To toggle between them just click into the graph. OPTIONS
All options start with one dash. -h Show summary of options. -r REFRESH_RATE Set the refresh rate of the graph in microseconds. The default is 250000 (a quarter of a second). -g GRAPH_STYLE Start using graph style #[1-3] (only on dual CPU systems). Style 1 shows the utiliziation in one graph, while 2 and 3 are split in two little graphs. Style 2 shows the two graphs on top of each other. Style 3 uses a mirror like type. The default style is 1, which is also the style used on single CPU systems. -c1 IDX, -c2 IDX On systems with more than 2 CPUs, select the CPUs to show. Per default CPU number 1 and 2 are shown. On a quad CPU systems you may launch second wmSMPmon showing CPUs number 3 and 4. -no-swap Do not monitor swap. SEE ALSO
