Yes. I hate that I cant open the clipboard to check the map and see who is on my vox channel at the same time.

Why not just move one or the other? Are you keeping the radio window open the entire time?

No, I keep the clipboard up far more often. But there are times when I want to quickly check the radio to see who is range or on channel while cruising.

The only issue I have with the new clipboard is that it hides the film dialog window to save or cancel the film and now I have films 1,2,3,4, etc.
I'm sure I'll learn to deal with it in time.

Yep - HATE IT! Already reported it here:

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,385542.0.html

I too do exactly the same thing when I want to check who is quickly in range and i usually have my clipboard open almost all the time. Now I have to move the clipboard first, or minimize the clipboard, then check range, then close range / vox and bring up the clipboard again. Too many steps and is counter-intuitive.

Please put it back the way it was!

I was under the impression that they adjusted the clipboard to be/stay open on top of all other windows in the game and stay in the center, for purpose of the VR users benefit

If I read the release notes correctly

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

Why not simply move the radio windows to where they are not behind the clipboard?
