Michel,

>I took a look at it. That's why I didn't understand your message. I was confused about your statements about point 1 to 4. Those are not even within the forms. Those were there before yesterday. We didn't touch the layout over there. So, I don't see your point about the changes we did in the forms.

I didn't mean that everything was new, certainly most of the items existed in the old format. My suggestions for changing item 2 and 3 was to gain a little more room.

>As for point 5 and 7, those were there before. Usually, for small categories and forum, they were fitting on one line. Sometimes, they were wrapping on those lines. Now, it's 4. So, we got two more lines here.

Item 5 did not even exist before

Item 7 used to look like this:

It only took up 1 vertical line. Now you are forcing it to take up 4 lines, a 400% increase in size.

>So, what is the point exactly? Is it all about because you have two more lines? If that is the case, as I said today, we'll have an option for that so you could disable it. So, if there is something else in regards to that thread, let me know. As for me, I really don't see anything more than the upcoming option to allow the disabling of some items.

It's not just two lines. It's 5 lines by time you add all the new items. I used to be able to see 18 lines of message content in the old format. I can only see 13 lines in the same amount of space in the new format. That's a 28% decrease. Have you tried running the UT on a 1024x768 resolution system? Most of the time I spend in here answering questions is done on my notebook and the new format just doesn't work as well as the old format.
