analysis format issue?

heya i used to do analysis of some games and find better moves, but I'm having trouble finding where to click in this screenshot: where I am supposed to see the better move - wouldn't there be a button?

When I look just under the INACCURACY post, I can't read the whole (suggested?) move sequence so I'm left going hmmm, bad move but what was so much better that I missed, and how do I find out.

Sorry if this is a very foolish question as have been on some bad painkillers last night due to some toothache and also haven't been on chess.com for very long anyway, so in beta now it's hard for me to remember exactly how the layout was before.

Also, see those three dots that do the ripple effect, doesn't that indicate working, and why is it perpertually working, it never seems to stop.

I’ve not used this new analysis layout but in the screenshot above you’ve already put the move in, so it’s showing the responses it likes for Black. 

 

If you go back a move, the analysis will be showing the top lines for White’s 6th move. In this case it’s a fairly simple reason that it wouldn’t like the fact you put the knight on the side and probably wants you to play Nf3. I believe you can also hit the retry tab to attempt another move yourself before reading what the engine says.

Ah right, thanks. Shouldn't there be some part of the analysis where I can get it to show me the best moves from any part of the game though? Like graphically? Or is it only going to show me in notation

The green arrow shows the best move.. h2-h3 is highlighted.. The green arrow always shows the best move..

Well no, not here; the arrow is showing what I did, and how bad it was with the ?! lol

No, I think Rasta_Jay has a point - I didn't notice the arrow as I was looking on a very small iphone. It's suggesting pawn to h3 instead as the improvement, although it's not the move I would personally play.
