This is not a UI problem. I bid 3H and partner passed, then put down:

QT
ATx
KQxxxx
Kx

LHO lead his singleton heart queen and eleven tricks were easy from there. At the other table the world class ppponents opened 1H on my hand and had no trouble reaching and making 4H, for a big loss of IMPs to my side!

I thought I had a close decision between 4H and inviting (did not really consider opening 1H in 2/1 but obviously this is some pairs’ style).

Thanks for posting the hand and play!

This hand illustrates (I think) what I meant when I wrote partner is allowed to bid 4 over 3 with good stuff on top of his D. The QT in S, a CK that looks well positioned, and good quality trumps would convince me to bid on.

Several commentators chose to rebid 3♥,.
Presumably, partner believed his previous 3♦ to be constructive (I sympathise).
Otherwise, he now seems to be worth 4♥, especially at imps, . :(
