GM mode "The Cast" pate move "View" to the left

On my GM screens of whatever random sizes I'm having a minor issue with "Character Details" page.

Looking to the scroll on the right with the right with the list of people.

The button "view" is appear beyond the width of my internet page.

This is just a bit tedious to have to shift the web browser scroll to get to it.

Could we move "view" to the left, or even under, the scroll list of characters?

I have no issue with the button being off screen and needing to scroll over to it, perhaps it's something to do with your devices being used/screen resolution/zoom percentage.

It is pretty far to the right though.

Browser and machine info please, it's under the character list (and left aligned) in Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox (on Windows).

IE 11

Desktop
Windows 8.1
28" monitor
1920x1080

Window size varies all the time

"View" appears for me to the bottom and right of the scroll bar. If it is left aligned it is left-ed to the edge of the scroll selector.

I had noticed in a game I recently started the view button over to the right initially (in Firefox), but then shifted to below the list once there were more players in the cast.

Ive got 10 PCs and 20+ NPCs in the my list. Still seeing it on the left side.

Would prefer it being 'under' not 'beside' the scroll list is all.

Does seem that if my browser window is wide enough its seeable. However I often multitask with narrower browser windows.

Hmm. Well I'm using Windows 7, Firefox 27.01, 1920x1080 and the 'view' button is definitely on the right hand side for me.

Not especially ever an issue for me since I didn't tend to use it.

Probably its location is related to the size of the cast list, something about wrapping around portraits perhaps.

Re: GM mode "The Cast" pate move "View" to the left

Ah !  That helped, Brygun ... yes, if the browser window isn't maximised then the list and/or view button start off to the right when I have the browser width at anything under 66% width of the screen (on a 24" monitor @ 1920 x 1080) - the two controls (list plus button) are partially visible as I reduce the window width down and are off screen at around 60% - basically whenever the horizontal scroll bar appears.  Admittedly the char info block is taking up rather a lot of space for its size, but yup, the problem is you reducing the browser window width.  That said, if the button was under the listbox, it would give you a bit more room to play with - personally I've no objection, so +0.
