XF 2.1 Is it possible to turn off compression of posts?

[Jovial Monk]

I find compressing posts and threads a darn nuisance. Would not be so bad if older posts on a page were compressed rather than new ones—I find myself replying to a post when suddenly several pop up and I have to change or delete my post!

What do you mean by "compression of posts"?

 

[Jovial Monk]

Where part of a thread is hidden only to unroll on hitting save.

Sounds like you are referring to posts that were made while you were composing? These can actually be viewed before you post by clicking.
