mink Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Having finished a free money tourney I right-clicked on a friends name while I was still in the tourney area and became a kib at his table. But the buttons at the lower edge of the window remained the same as they were in the tourney, including the $ button. I though I better do not try it there. --- My settings are such that I have 8 lines of text displayed in the chat area. Sometimes one of the famous private bridge clubs sends a club chat that is excactly 8 lines long (including one blank line). When this text is scrolled out of the display area by other chat messages, it is not possible to scroll back pagewise. Rather, I have to scroll up one line, which causes the whole message to appear, and then can scroll further back pagewise. Karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 The first bug you report will be fixed in next version. The 2nd bug is a consequence of the fact that carriage returns are not possible through normal chat mechanisms so the part of the software that displays the chat on the screen is not designed to handle them. I would just as soon avoid touching this part of the program (mostly for fear of screwing up "normal chat") and would prefer it if the private club manager you refer to (I don't know who this is) would stop sending these sorts of messages to club members. Even if the text scrolled properly, I suspect that many of the members of the club in question would find it annoying to have their entire chat area suddenly filled up and have to scroll up in order to read the chat that they actually care about. So I would appreciate it if you could ask this club manager to stop using 8-line messages. If you don't feel comfortable about do that, send me an e-mail (fred@bridgebase.com) with his name and I will ask him to stop.

mink Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 So I would appreciate it if you could ask this club manager to stop using 8-line messages.Thanks Fred. No problem for me to let him know that. I shall do so at once. Karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I reported the first problem last week in the BBO Support Forum, in the thread Jumping from money bridge to normal tables. I think that's generally the more appropriate place to report bugs (and see whether the bug you noticed has already been reported). This forum is for requesting new features.
