Question

Forum Screen Width

Not sure if this works for anyone else, but I have 27” monitors and there is about a mile of DEAD SPACE on each side of the forum posts. Maybe this format works on iPhones but it’s not so great on desktop monitors and laptops.

same.  oh hello if you reduce the window it hits a sweet spot here where it doubles in size, after that it shrinks again.  bizarre.

We also need a place or moderator to post questions we find.   I’m making a list of things.   Like I can’t grab the corner of a reply box to enlarge it while I’m typing to see all I typed.  Have to scroll.

Yeah, that’s not good. Also, if you look at some threads with a lot of replies, you have to keep hitting “Load more replies” (or whatever it’s called). The pages were easier to navigate when they were numbered since you could jump to the last page if you just wanted to read the last post (or last few posts). Can’t find a way to do that on this board without continually hitting the “Load more...” button (which is obviously a pain). Actually, it’s the same thing with the questions; you have to keep hitting that ”Show more activity” button and if you go back, you have to start all over again.

Right, I’ll add that to my list.   On my Desktop I could go to the next page and then up in the url change the page # at the end to jump several pages at a time instead of only the  2 or 3 they gave us at the bottom.

For getting the Full forum width to show the way you want on a Desktop monitor (and using Windows Edge or Chrome)….I went to the top rt corner of the “Browser” window, found the three dots, and hit that and used the Zoom function to increase the Forum’s display.  I had it set to 70% in the old Forum, but needed to up it to 90% for the current forum to get a size I liked.

 

I rarely use it so I forgot it was there.

Thanks. That will work for my purposes.
