Monroi problem

[Vlad Dobrich]

In trying to see the Cdn Open games, all boards are sliced off at the middle of the f file. Anyone else have this problem?

Hi Vlad;
It was ok earlier today maybe they are working on the site right now.

I just went to Mon Roi now it is running again.

Re: Monroi problem

It has always been running for me. It STILL cuts off the board at the f-file! You clearly don't have that problem. Let me hear from anyone who does.

Re: Monroi problem

You won't be hearing from me because I don't have that problem. Have you tried picking up your monitor and moving it to the right about 3 or 4 inches?

What browser (name and version) are you using? Internet Explorer or Firefox or Opera or Chrome or ???

When I see problems with a website's display, I immediately assume it is a browser issue and then I try other browsers... *most* webpages are tested with Internet Exploder (I mean explorer) and some web developers arrogantly assume that IE is what everyone uses... There has been a recent update to IE to version 8 and that version of IE seems to have display differences - so much so that there is even an option to revert to "compatability mode" or whatever to make it behave like IE7 I guess...

I use Firefox gave up on explorer 3 years ago.

Re: Monroi problem

Gee, you think giving info about the nature of the problem, and the underlying platform might be helpful? Shame on you for thinking. Otherwise you get:

"Yup, I got the same problem too; let me know what you find out."

Or the Microsoft reply regarding how many people to change a light bulb:

"We have an exact copy of your lightbulb here and ours is working...."

For what it's worth, the Monroi live feed works fine for me under both IE6 (!) and Firefox 3.0.5.

The main reason I have Firefox is that I know it adheres to standards. Except for one: Explorer is standard when the computer goes out the door.

P.S. The other answer about how many Micro$oft employees it takes to change a light bulb: none; Gates declares Darkness to be the new standard.

Try to change the zoom using CRTL and - or go to View - Zoom

No Zoom on my laptop I do have CTRL and (and what?)

Hi Kerry,
Thanks, I downloaded Firefox. Now have X-tables and a great picture of Dina K!!:):) But still no g and h files on the game boards :(

May you post a picture of the troubled board? (Button PrintScreen and a program Paint will help you to do this.)

Try to click buttons CTRL and + (plus) or - (minus) at the same time to zoom in or out. Or go to View/Zoom (Firefox) and choose one of the options.

Re: Monroi problem

Vlad,

In Internet Explorer select View (from the menu bar) and Zoom to 100%
Your "zoom" is at 125% or higher and you don't see the whole board.

I get that problem when I try to put two games on my screen. Usually I close the screen on the left hand side and then put my cursor on the names header on the screen where the board is cut. I press the left mouse button and then drag the chess board to the left hand side of the screen and get the full board.

Failing that, the only thing I can think of is maybe your video card is set for the largest text size making the chess board too large. I use 800 X 600 pixels which is on the large size but easier for reading text.

Re: Monroi problem

It's all about the screen resolution and Internet Explorer zoom setting.
Using 1280 by 1024 pixels, 75% zoom and full screen (press F11) in Internet Explorer you can get 4 boards per page without scroll bars. This is on a 17" monitor (4:3). If you have a widescreen (16:9) or a larger monitor (19",21", 22" ...) you can increase your zoom setting to 100%.
