Moving the event screen

[Col7777]

After all this time I just learned I can move the event screen around.

Many a time that screen has got in the way and partly blocked my view of something, anyway I just clicked on it and realised I could move it and lock it and also scroll back to earlier messages as well and making it lighter or darker.

Some of you probably already knew this but I didn't and wondered how many more didn't.

You mean the message log screen (rectangle) ? Yes you can move it, you can also move the clock, the mini unit view and everything where you see a 'X' symbol when mousing over a pop-up window. Only thing you cannot move around AFAIK is the recognition manual which always comes at the lower left.


When playing TMO mod, moving the message screen will reveal the Omnimeter.

HI XS,

Yes I knew about the clock but never the message screen.

I've often wished that could just dismiss the message screen. The M works great for making the Recognition manual go away for a bit.



What's REALLY frustrating about the message screen is that it could so easily have been built right into the bottom bar (where the sub-tab buttons are) It always feels like the middle of that bar is just wasted screen real estate.



You can move it down there but it's then below the empty bar instead of on top of it.
