Make Clipboard Stationary When Zoom-View
« on: April 25, 2018, 05:11:14 AM »
It'd be nice to have the clipboard remain where it's at, when zooming view in/out. (not follow zoom)
And for those that insist on flaming wishes lately, then this could also be an optional setting, so they can have things stay as it is.

Why is everyone's solution to everything, to make updates/changes optional? If optional changes were implemented as much as I've read them, there would be a page with 100's of options on it. Which is ridiculous.

Regardless, I thought that the clipboard does remain stationary while zooming?

To try and please the whiners that are afraid of change, but still implement some change in the game. (before it becomes stagnant)

And no the clipboard does not stay the same size.

+1. Wished for this before.

I was told to shrink map to minimum size and then zoom and then move map and then resize map and then make second optional clipboard button and viola you got it. That’s a lot of steps when the clipboard could just stay the same size wether zoomed in or out.

Great wish

Still trying to figure out this wish. So, you want the clip board to scale while zooming?

I also do not understand the wish.

He wants the clipboard to scale with the zoom, so that it stays in sight and takes up exactly the same place & size on screen.

Why zoom in with your clipboard out? That's silly.

To be able to look at the map?  For the functions the clipboard provides, it's a bit odd to have it affected by zoom.

Not a huge deal, but sure why not +1?

Sometimes in land mode on zoom looking at the map scaled to default would be nice. But, that also would have allowed me to get very precise on where I was dropping my rounds on my own terrains since I know from the map room town dot which way all the town buildings are laid out. I always set the map room to bias toward the field to favor the town owner in a race between two panthers, one off the spawn and one out of the hanger to the town flag.

Not much of a secret, I just asked myself how a GVer would feel all alone defending his map room.

I wish the clipboard would be the same size and location in the view for planes, vehicles, guns, tower, and hangar (at least in the un-zoomed view).

We can change the values for each view in the settings folder. You would want to duplicate the values of each file (clipcvhanger/clipcvtower/clipcvtowero/clipFLIGHT/clipHANGARo/cliphgr1 etc...)
Just make all of the values the same for each file.

Just an example:
0.958939,xPosition
0.018167,yPosition
1.100288,zPosition

After you do all that, the clipboard will be the exact same size and in the same position, no matter if in the tower, flight, GV, hanger..

I guess what I am seeing is an effect of the 17lb gun field of view being different from other guns and all guns sharing the same clipboard position.   So, not a big deal.  I'm sure it will be fixed when the 17lb gun views are fixed.   :D
