+fallan2 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Recently whenever I bring up the geocaching map the side panel opens from the left of the screen. Is there a way to turn off this feature? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+Viajero Perdido Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 It used to take me two clicks to get rid of the misplaced splat icon along the top of the map. Expand the panel, hide it. Now I only have to hide it. (It pulls the splat with it.) But still, +1. It gives me hope, that they're working on the map. Quote Link to comment
+hydnsek Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Yes, the sudden intrusive appearance of the side panel every time I open the map is beyond annoying. It used to hide unless I summoned it, now it's always in my face and I have to waste a click closing it. And I use the map a lot. I hope this is a bug they will quickly fix. I almost never need to use the filter features in the panel, so it's a total intrusion. Quote Link to comment
+KevHatcher Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 +1 For this. It is only recently that it the side search panel is always there, and it does not remember that when I hide it I want it hidden for good, unless I summon it. Quote Link to comment
+oakwilt Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I don't like the side panel being open when I open the map. It never use to be. Is there a setting to keep it from opening? Quote Link to comment
Blue Square Thing Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I'll add my name to the list of people who think the same thing. For me, as a basic member, the side bar is almost entirely useless. If it's going to have to be there for some reason perhaps it could be used to pop up messages reminding people of basic etiquette or something? Quote Link to comment
+hunterKat Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 One more vote to make the side panel behave as it used to. It's in my way, and like others have said, I only want to see it when I need it. Can someone at HQ respond on this thread? Quote Link to comment
Moun10Bike Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 This issue was looked at by the dev team. I know it's not the answer you were hoping for, but it was decided that it will not be fixed. The problem was the result of fixing another issue in which the map nav elements would become centered in the page. They felt that the side panel issue was less noticeable and intrusive, and that a fix could introduce new bugs. The good news is that one of the main reasons for the decision is that a new map is in progress, and it was deemed inefficient to devote time and resources to the old version at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment
Blue Square Thing Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Thanks for the reply. Let's see what happens with the new map... ;-) Quote Link to comment
