The new clipboard is...well
« on: January 27, 2014, 11:40:15 PM »
I just don't care for it.  I like the one we had much better.  The graphics of it seems like it has been regressed back to AH1, and as you can see in the pic, when you open something on it, the scroll bar and some buttons are now partially obscured.  



So that's my whine for the next few years.  Luckily I know how to edit it to look how I want. :)

yeah clipboard looks like crap, poorly done 3d modeling and the attempt at making a torn paper effect went badly.

Agreed, I mad fun of the paper effect also.
It fails because the text stays in a straight line and there is no shadowing or change in colour replicating the crumples.

I could care less how it looks, as long as it does what it needs to do.  With the slider and buttons fixed, it will be fine.

Found the issue, there are 2 missing polygons that determine the bounds of the clip board that must stay on the screen.

Fixed for next patch

Rule #4 for saying, "if it ain't broken don't fix it"?   Really?  


Lol

The consensus seems to be the new clipboard isn't liked.  That's not baiting or trolling.

This.  The old clipboard was better.  Just my opinion that doesn't count.   I appreciate the effort I just felt like the old one was fine.  Not an attack, just a preference.
