Newspaper formatting wrong

andyhdz · 04-09-2023, 12:54 PM

I love using the newspaper function to see my league stories however for 24 the titles on some stories run across other stories making it very cumbersome to look at. Its like the titles of some of the stories are not set up to constrain in the newspapers boxes. I'm using default fonts and windowed mode.

I don't like having the newest news on the left and the oldest on the right.
Doesn't flow going right to left.

I would like to see the newspaper run top to bottom (newest stories on top) and have a browser button to we can capture the text for posting. I've probably posted this every year - would LOVE to see it happen.

yes newspaper could definitely use some TLC but this is a true formatting bug. Looks awful right now.

Can you show as screenshot of a particularly egregious example of this and also mention what resolution it's at? Thanks!

The problems occur when the margins are narrow.

Any word on fixing this or what settings to use to make it go away? It's really annoying.

I'm seeing this on the first page, but when I move to the next pages things are formatted correctly with no overlap.

I'm seeing it on subsequent pages in 1920x1080 full screen. Word-wrapping the article title would seem to be the solution; "Read more..." will take care of any additional text space overflow. This is version 24.5.64, by the way.
