Live chess and menu hover on conflict

Sort:
e4_guy

In case when on  live chess piece is picked, if mouse slips over board upon side menu, hover on function will pop up and cover the board, so player have no idea where to put piece. Very annoying and it costed me few games in bullet (sometimes I forget where my piece was grin.png).

This is just taken now from live game - side menu popup covered half of board.
I'm thinking about limiting mouse movements if piece is picked up to board only, it should not be possible to move pointer outside, right ?.

Happens to me a lot in puzzle rush.. Very annoying..

 By the way, I started getting all kind of bugs that I have never noticed before after I joined beta. Are beta users using a different page than the rest?

Rasta_Jay

A tip is to make the board little bit smaller. (use the cog wheel top right for the board, and then the re-size button)

I don't want my board smaller, I want this problem to be fixed, not patched.

Yes, we are working on it

Just to remind about it, problem still present, and of course still very annoying.

I have just reported it again. Thank you!

e4_guy I have adapted to it now lol. It  doesn't happen a lot, but when it does I right click and the piece will bounce back to its original square.
