Screen Size issues
Re: Screen Size issues
what template are you using ??
-e-
I will look into it..
Re: Screen Size issues
The new forum looks great... :D
But I can't see anything - everything's all over the page, scrolling back and forth, and some people's replies just don't appear... :cry:
I know there's going to be teething problems and you may well be working on this so I shall be patient! Just thought I'd let you know.
Cheers guys 8)

I am finding it hard to duplicate this problem but I'll check the template cause I use 1024x768 at work and theres no stretch at all.

People's idents fill the width of the screen, some replies are beneath them and some are far to the right... and Peloquin, for example, seems to be posting blank posts. And I know he wouldn't do that. Would he?
And the quote thing just shows a tiny scrolling box...
Maybe it's just my computer... Maybe it's cause I got a Mac... Maybe it's just me? Makes it's very difficult to use MS generally though :cry:
Any tips?
Re: Screen Size issues
The quote thing....you can click on expand on top right of the Quote to see the Quote completely.
For the other problems you described please make a screenshot and post it either here or via Email.

I have heard of this with one other person on a different forum. Any chance you could make a new test account and tell me if it still happens on that one?
Also for those using a smaller res I noticed on Integrastyle it was stretching and that should be fixed for those on 1024x768..
Matt, I think the page widening is happening due to the number of menu items displayed, I am almost certain if we drop that from 16 - 10 it will fix it...
testing my theory now
-e-
has that fixed the problem ??
-e-
I think I could drop down to 400x400 now :wink:
Re: Screen Size issues
It's definitely helped the width issue but things are still all over the place... I'm emailing TomTom a screenshot anyway. :)

Have you tried my suggestion above?
Re: Screen Size issues
Will do now...
Cheers :wink:
Re: Screen Size issues
Erm, tried to do a new test account but I've only got the one email account I can access and it won't let me use my current one again...
Ok next time you are on get with myself or another admin and we will turn off the email activation so you can use any email addy to try this out or
Does anyone have a test account already set up that he can use?
user acid pass = test
-e-
mixu- log in with that username above and see if you get the same thing.
Re: Screen Size issues
OK, the continuing saga...
It's fine with the test account although the width still varies on different forums. Getting somewhere (!) but where do we go from here?
My ongoing thanks :wink:
We need to delete your account that your using now and have you re-register is the only thing I can think of unless someone else has another idea.
Re: Screen Size issues
Yikes - and lose my precious member no. 15! E, is there any alternative? Or am I doomed to become a noob again? :P
Re: Screen Size issues
Mixu, I saw that you are using the FU Subic template...maybe change it in your profile back to the standard template "Integra style" before we start with the drastic moves...maybe it?s a Mac problem. Are there any other Mac users registered who can test the site with the alternative FI Subice template?
If it does not work changing the template I would like to login with your account to see if I ran reproduce the screen size errors you experience. Drop me another Email after you changed the template and I will call you back with a new password because I have to reset it to login with your account.
I wouldn't worry too much we can always go in manually and set your new username to 15 member id and switch your old acct to the other id.
Re: Screen Size issues
I think guys, changing the template has fixed it!!!
The width still doesn't automatically configure in my browser when I change the size... but I can live with that.
[size=6]HUGE[/size] thanks and respect for the time and effort taken - I really appreciate it. I hope it's helped somebody else too.
:D :D :D :D
Re: Screen Size issues
Glad we could help. :wink:
Mixu, are you surfing the internet with your browser open to the maximum width ?? what is your screen resolution and the size of your monitor ?? Because I reduced the width of the menu bar and I think that fixed it
-e-
Re: Screen Size issues
I've got a 21" monitor (I think) so my browser is never more than two-thirds of the screen... Resolution is 1152x870, 75Hz.
Does that make sense?
try changing your resolution to 1280 x 1024 and tell me what you see,
also, try to full screen your browser and see if it helps any
-e-
Re: Screen Size issues
Changing the resolution completely screws the screen up, everythings too small... If I full screen the browser it's fine - but the monitor is too big to do that as I'm at work.
Not to worry, scrolling to the left is nothing compared to how it was yesterday...
Cheers 8)
working for me now :D thanks guys
good deal
-e-
Re: Screen Size issues
It was fixed yesterday but the width of the screen isn't automatically adjusting anymore :( I think that [ms] is just messing with me!
how so ?? whats it doing ?? it will not adjust less than a certain width (simply because of how many links we have up there)
whats your monitor size + resolution ?

Well if it's not adjusting because of the links then I can't do anything more. I'll just have to close my favorites then. Thanks anyways.
Re: Screen Size issues
It's fixed :LoveYou: Thanks guys!
;) it could have been a cache error.....

Re: Screen Size issues
every time the board changes this problem reoccurs :(
Re: Screen Size issues
uh oh... I'll get to it shortly Xeb, maybe a menu problem again or just maybe that the MS icon is to big and its shoving things out, I'll fix it shortly today

Re: Screen Size issues
