Pugwash Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 When I'm reading a post and someone has an image embedded (for instance a wide sig like Ubi's) that's wider than my screen, I can no longer scroll horizontally. The only way to read the whole post is to use a larger monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gioarmani Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 You're Mac right? You using Safari or Firefox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest avitt Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 I noticed the same thing...no horizontal scroll bar. But if I click and drag to the right, the display will pan over. Hope it works for you too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 We're aware of it but only T can change it when he returns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 You're Mac right? You using Safari or Firefox? Today I'm PC/Firefox, but I'm usually on a Mac, yes. @Puggy: I posted exactly the same rant in this thread: Great minds think alike, mate.

robertk Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Me too... Interesting problem. I'm using a mac and both Safari and Netscape and haven't had that problem at all. I always get the horizontal scroll bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Looks perfect now. Thanks Thomas (and the gang)!!! Edit: Now it automatically resizes all bigger images. Great idea, but it would be even better if it only resized images that exceed the limit 799 in width (which is the upper limit of keeping the text layout firm in 1024x viewing resolution). Is this possible to do? PM sent to Thomas about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 By-tor, what I have done now is supposed to be the best solution for all resolutions, and it is also the only solution available right now If you click the downsized picture, it will open in a new window, full size.

sssurfer Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Thanks, Admin. I hate I have to point out that there is still an issue with the list of Members Who Viewed Topic Today, at the bottom of any page. It seems like lacking carriage returns / line feeds. It displays a single line of names that gets interrupted on the right side. Here's a pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 I'll add it to my list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devedander Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 That's odd... PC Firefox and it's still doing the no scroll bar for me... wide images go right off to the right and click/drag won't fix it... One thing that may be adding to this is that I am viewing it on a widescreen but only using the left 3/4 of my screen (my screen is a TV with PIP in the top right corner for live TV) so maybe it thinks since my res is 1300x768 that it's ok to make the page that wide? Either way I still don't have scroll bars... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronus Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Still same problem for me, PC/IE6 Any way to re-enable the horizontal scroll bars? That would remedy the problem. Or at least have it optional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Chronus, can you please have a look now and report back? FYI: this is a bug in IE6, so I suggest upgrading to IE7 or use Opera or Firefox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronus Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Chronus, can you please have a look now and report back? FYI: this is a bug in IE6, so I suggest upgrading to IE7 or use Opera or Firefox Thanks, it seems to be working now. sssurfer's image goes across the screen, but the horizontal scroll bar is now available. I will try again at work tomorrow as well and check it if I get time. I try not to upgrade unless I really really need to, and for now IE6 does what I need On another unrelated note, the post icons aren't as good as the old ones, they have less character and look bland, but I guess we can't have everything! This posting window also appears below the "Quick Access" panel and may be another IE6 problem perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
