A small visual glitch on "Manage your files" page

[kend7510]

Here is what the glitched page look like:

It seems to be due to only one file has discussion enabled (circled).

 

 

Zoomed out version:

One way to "fix" it is to zoom in or just make sure that file is the right-most one:

I've tested with both Firefox and IE (only browsers I have installed), and both have this problem.

I can live with the glitch, but just letting you know and hoping it can be fixed :)

So what is the glitch?

 

If you only have one file with discussions enabled, the option will not show on the others.

If you look at the first picture, you'll see that the files are lined up oddly in the second line. I think that's what he's talking about.

 

(Look at "Dog Gift Tweaks" - its below and to the right with nothing to the left)

Sorry I am not extremely visually oriented.....all I saw was the red circle around the discussions link.

In terms of each mod's position on the management page, they are controlled via cascade style sheets (CSS) and relative positioning. If you change the text size or windows size (dragging corner all around), the columns will self-adjust to the screen real estate you have available.

 

I have 70 file pages uploaded but mine are all uniform (exact same options set for all of them) which helps the rows line up identically without any "visual" problems no matter how large or small my window is sized. (completely unplanned)

 

I can easily see how varying options causing the boxes to be differently sized will mess up the positioning because of the "relative" factor as to what vertical space is the next available row. I do not know the solution to prevent the odd row selections and it may be that you cannot fix it without causing more problems...especially when you are trying to make it work for IE and Firefox...IE has a horrible history for screwing up CSS standards and forcing web designers to write custom IE-only CSS.

 

At the end of the day, I think Dark0ne will have this particular issue far down on his large to-do list...especially with his re-design in progress.

 

I have no work-around suggestion for the mean-time. :(
