Message Preview window disappears

chateauneufdupape

When I hover over a thread a preview window opens. However, this disappears after a few seconds. Is there anyway of making this stay longer or ideally stay until I move the mouse?

It's staying up for me,as long as I don't move the mouse:D

Mine goes off too unless I keep my finger moving slightly on my touchpad

Does anyone understand why the preview is sometimes the whole post but at others there is just one line? (like now?)

It's only recently that it was changed.........before you could only see a line or so

Thats the bit that puzzles me Traf.

Normally I see the whole thing but for instance tonight it is back to one line again. it seems to fluctuate and I wondered if it was connected to the volume of new posts or something. Not a big deal, it just puzzled me a bit. And that's easily done

It's fine for me now but your right ,it could be the high volume but it's more likely those cheeky tweakers messing about behind the scenes again:D

fiddling with the settings:eek:

or it could just be you :rotfl:

But long ones will give you headaches ......so just ignore them........problem solved

It's always been just a single line in firefox - I'll need to find out if there is a tweak somewhere

the flashing seems to be if the preview touches the top/bottom of the screen

It flashes on and off if there isn't enough room for it on the page. I've cured this by scrolling down......so that the post I'm trying to preview is near the bottom of the page, then there is usually enough room above to show the preview.
