BOB snap controls misplaced

Post by agentcom »

Running latest FF and BOB on a Win7 Pro PC. I have all the usual add-ins (MR, WTG, CG, AO).

Anyway, anyone ever seen this? The buttons for taking snaps in some of my games have moved to the bottom of the map rather than the top of the map where they usually are (as indicated by my awesome Paint skilz)

They've been moved around due to the update over the weekend where they added advertisements for freemiums, and moved the round number over to the right hand side. The side effect that's most prominent is the clickable maps dialog boxes now popup right over the top of the terit where you're trying to click, causing quite a bit of havoc there, especially for BOB users.

Is there any way to stop the popups doing that on BOB? Or is the only answer to not use BOB for now?

Not that I've found so far -- it doesn't seem to be on every map either ...

I think I may have stumbled on to a "workaround" ... changing the BOB setting to move the chat to the top seems to have repositioned the popups so they don't interfere with the clickable maps functionality. It's taking a little getting used to, but I think I could get accustomed to having the chat as the first thing I see on the game/map page. Seems to be working in my regular games and in the tournament games.

All right, folks, I have a version of BOB which seems to fix the snapshot button positioning issue. I am hoping that it helps with the tooltips as well. I don't have access to the userscripts.org account, so I cannot update the "GET BOB" link in the first post. However, you can try this version of the script and let me know how things work. If it goes well, we can see about fixing that link. So, here it is:
