Re: The New Drop Down Select Something

Yes @Noel7 I've noticed the new icons, but I guess I wasn't bothered by their moving.  I'm bothered by plenty of other things, though Smiley Happy

Have you noticed, and what do you think?  I kind of hate it, the constant movement up and down in front of my eyes.

 

It's bad enough that the Q pages jump all over.


It also appears that, after fixing the "wrote" nonsense, now the site automatically tags the person you quote and reply to (so Noel should be tagged now and get a notification even though I didn't do it). 

 

I will have to get used to both the floating banner and auto-tagging before I form an opinion. Hmmm. 


I think I’ll like that feature.  Didn’t it do that in the previous forum?

 

About the only change I’ve noticed so far that I’m not thrilled with is that on my iPad the default font is now smaller (I had to change this manually), and my “paste” feature, as in “cut-and-paste”, doesn’t work anymore.

Re: The New Drop Down Select Something

Not a fan of the new rolling menu, or the same old stark colors. I have to decrease the brightness on my devices or I get a migraine. 

 

But I was just commenting elsewhere, the overall design is shaping up to remind me of HSN's site. Especially the Homepage. Could it be they have hired their IT Dept and we can look forward to much better performance here, once all the tweaking is done? I'm not getting the bounce today - hooray! 🤗

@VanSleepywrote:

I don't think I notice what you all mean by the menu moving, but I have a different problem the last couple days.  My font size as I'm reading keeps getting smaller.  I changed it in my preferences, but it's bigger for two seconds and gets small again.  (Yes I save.) And I can't expand the page with my fingers like I could before.


 

I'm having the problem with font size too. I have  mine set at extra large and it stays that way until the buffering stops. Then it goes to a very small font. I can enlarge my screen, but it doesn't stay that way when I move to a new page either.

 

Anyone know of a fix?

YES!  Thank you for weighing in, @x Hedge  I was wondering if everyone else thought it was  great addition.

Re: The New Drop Down Select Something

Actually for me, first time in a long time that the drop down menu isn't appearing with the slightest provocation other than mouse over, then remaining blocking the page contents underneath and not responsive to attempts to cancel/close.
