30. March 2007, 03:43:26 Subject: GREAT side effect  I have the ""Show menu column/row on game pages" option unchecked, so less things load while I play a game. Before the site design change, it would still load the left column (with just "Main Page" line), and also show the middle column (with the game), and then also show the right column (with the Game Notation in it - EVEN if you choose not to view it) So for some-what slow connection, the game page would start to load, and as you start to move your mouse to make a move, the next column would load - Shifting the board over making you make a bad move. ------- NOW I'm glad to see that when you have the option ""Show menu column/row on game pages" unchecked, the left column does not even load anymore - YEA! 1/2 way there. Is there ANY ANY ANY way to also have an option to turn off the right hand column where the game notation is? That would solve the long-held Firefox bug that loads the page in a strange way that shifts the page over during the page load. I don't know enough about CCS to know if it is possible in there, but if not - FENCER - any chance for this option? Right now, the only thing in the right hand column is "Game notation (show)" and does not need a whole column just for the option to show the game notation. 30.

March 2007, 04:12:00 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect redfrog: Well before the site design change, the left column still loaded with just "Main Page" in it (again, a waste to load a whole column for just 2 words) But after Fencer fixed the bug in that option, that column does not even load! (I just hope Fencer does not add that column back in for some reason - both columns on the game page are NOT needed.... well unless you use any information in any of them, which I do not - I just want my game to load as quickly as possible, and would be nice to also have an additional submit button above the board also - giving me the option to not even scroll down.) The more simple that game page is, the better in my opinion. All the extra "junk" is good when you are not playing your games - not needed while you are playing your games. 30. March 2007, 04:22:00 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect BIG BAD WOLF: I say the more options he can give - the better - I fully understand and support your request - it sounds reasonable - Id also like to suggest - in addition to being able to turn off the columns, being able to choose to keep the f/s listings and favorite discussion board listings column from the main page - on the game page as well - maybe a set of links at the top of the column to let you toggle back and forth if you wish - i like to stay in the games - moving from game to game - but if im involved in a conversation on the discussion boards - id like to see if the thread was updated without having to back to the main page - does that make any sense? 30. March 2007, 05:01:11 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect  BIG BAD WOLF: if Fencer does put in a submit button above game boards I sure hope he makes it optional so you can turn it off. I like my game board as close to the top of the page as humanly possible and sure hope Fencer never puts anything above mine. 30. March 2007, 05:12:05 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect volant: Oh yes - an option for sure since I know some people like scrolling down past the board (checking the board to make sure their move is good) before submitting. For me, as long as the board does not "shift" while the page loads, I've already looked at the board when I made my move - and ready to submit and move on. If I know the submit button is going to be in the same spot every move, it would speed things up a lot - letting me put my mouse where the submit button will be and being able to click as soon as it loads - without first waiting for page to load, then scrolling down the page - then looking for the submit button - then finaly clicking on it. Yes, Optional of course. 30. March 2007, 05:20:53 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect BIG BAD WOLF: sounds very streamlined and efficient a great idea :) 30. March 2007, 08:39:14 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect  BIG BAD WOLF: Like this? 30. March 2007, 08:58:49 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect Fencer:    I was a bit worried because I use the game notation a lot for only one type of game but the link at the top of the game page makes that easy. 30. March 2007, 09:57:21 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect  BIG BAD WOLF: A not so great side effect is that now the "Main Page" doesn't have associated with it the red numbers where I could control how many games I still have to play, or click on to go to the game with least time left, like I used to. 30. March 2007, 10:13:40 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect pauloaguia:  We are flexible.30. March 2007, 10:19:16 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect Fencer: LOL. You beat me to it! 30. March 2007, 10:16:42 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect pauloaguia: I compensate for that by having the move button with the drop box beside it. I have several different choices available to me but if you just had the one choice it shouldn't add too much to your load time. 30. March 2007, 10:56:39 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect TarantinoFan: There's no option in that combo to go to the game with the least time left. I usually have my games sorted by time of last move and my main page sorted by time left. The red numbers use the sorting in the main page and the "goto next game" option uses my srting of last move time, so I'm happy. Anyway, it's been "fixed" now, thanks Fencer 30. March 2007, 11:11:53 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect pauloaguia: On the settings page just under the 3 choices of style and main page options there is a choice of "Sort next game by" Set your choice to "time left" and click the ascending radio button and your "go to next move" will automatically go to the game with the least time left.  30. March 2007, 11:30:38 Subject: Re: GREAT side effect TarantinoFan: Thanks for the help, I know all that. I already have my settings the way I like them, thank you anyway. |
