On my list of unmatched orders, clicking on the number in the Queue column does not show the queue. And it would be nice if I could open this in a new tab more easily rather than it be a javascript 'popUp()' link. RateSetter

Perhaps they are all ex microsoft/google coders and justifying their existence.

And it would be nice if I could open this in a new tab more easily rather than it be a javascript 'popUp()' link. RateSetter Whilst RS may be listening on here you may be better of putting in a question comment on the products support button at the bottom right of every screen. sadly even if they were listening they are hardly likely to change much. BTW there is another thread that is also discussing the changes that have been filtering their way through over the last couple of weeks here. On your point about the popup() its quite useful on both PC and tablet to have this popup and keep reloading it whilst also looking at other RS screens at the same time. On Mrs Aju's TAB S2 it can be useful to just be able to close the screen and not affect the original screen/session too. If you are familiar with google you can take the queue links URL and put it back into the main screen if you wish. I sometimes have two or 3 of these all on the same session of chrome but still isolated from the main RS screen session and watch them by reloading them to see the progress "Ctrl+R" in chrome reloads the screen.

The last update was a pain and this one is worse, at least let us get over one disaster before the next.

Why is everything so damn BIG and S P A C E D O U T ? Every iteration, it gets worse and worse.
When I visit a website, or use my computer in general, I expect to see information. Not acres of gaps. I have a big screen and small fonts so that I can get as much information as possible in view at a time. And then websites go and do this! Arghhhh ... why all the space?!!! On the Summary Page, the Balance Sheet -- a table consisting of 10 numbers -- now takes up three-quarters of my screen vertically. Three-quarters of my screen ... for 10 numbers! The Summary Page in full is 3 times as high as the largest I can make my browser, so I have to scroll repeatedly to see information which could comfortably be presented in a twentieth of the space.
I also took a close-up look at one of the tables I use regularly: the "Money on loan" list. Each line of text in the table occupies 11 pixels, and is followed by 44 pixels of gap.
What has possessed you, RS? Enough is enough.

It is as though RateSetter are using year 10 school children to run their IT systems.

The portfolio screen table looks just like my failed attempts to create a convincing table in Microsoft Word.

They are trying to make it more compatible with the toy mobiles market. Sadly its easy to fix bad fonts etc on professional kit, pc's etc, using extensions and the ctrl+plus or minus keys. On mrs aju's tab 2 the markets screen is the worst affected. Not having the time of the latest market amount is a design change probably trying to reduce the gaming we here are using to get better rates.

nnoyingly on the Ratetrends rgaph, the date nolonger comes up when you hover over the graph. Also having "Provision Fund" and "Lending Performance" lead to the same screen in Market Data is amateurish!

The color scheme really is horrible, like a child randomly choosing crayons and scribbling. That light pink on white is a good example. The contrast with the white background is very low. I checked the combination against accessibility standards on the site below, and it failed. This is particularly bad for people with eyesight-related disabilities. webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/

Has anyone been invited to those little soirees in the City and Brum, with drinkies and really nice canapes, recently? I used to enjoy those in the early days . Do they still have them or do I not have enough invested anymore? Any millionaire high rollers could perhaps mention the aesthetic car crash of the current site presentation if they are invited.
