Website top menu area hover annoyance

edited October 2021 in The Commons

The hover zone for your top main menu is way too large vertically and covers half of the sub menus on the shop and forum area, which is now resulting in mis-clicks constantly.

    I don't have that problem so not sure what's causing it

    It's happening to me too (Chorme browser) - I'm forever clicking "Recent Discussions" on the forum page (list of recent discussions) and getting the Shop page.

  • I have it as well. Desktop using Firefox, cellphone and tablet.

  • Same here, Chrome on Win 10. Same problem.

  • I've been plagued by this as well in Chrome Browser, Windows 10.

    Hmm, I'm using Chrome

    Ditto, I often click on commons to see the latest posts and half the time it take me to technology, very annoying

    Don't have that problem as in you don't mis-click? Or don't have the problem as in the hover area isn't as large as I've shown? They're 2 different things. Inspect one of the menu items then highlight the <a href> in the console Elements and you'll see the area it covers.

    I wasn't having the hover problem. It didn't activate until I was over the link but now since I cleared my cache it's quite a big area and mis-clicks are inevitable

    Good information, thanks. So it's a recent change then. Obviously not a critical issue, just annoying and hopefully quick for them to fix.

    I'm on 1920x1080 display.

    I thought it was just me.  Using Chrome with a 4k display.  Your hit box is identical to mine. 

    I have to be very precise to get "The Commons"  but 7 times out 10 I end up in the wrong place, press back and then remember my surgical precision.

    (but I'm having a cooling off period spending and not getting things done... so I didn't post this)

    Glad someone else has had this happening to them. been driving me craxy for the past week.

  • The joy when you want to go one category back and you're landing on the NFT page instead...

    Ah so it isn't my old fingers missing the mark then? It has been annoying me for a while. Then there's the Orange banner that has a delay before it appears and shifts everything down the page just in time for me to miss-click some link.

  • Same here as well, for quite some time. Also using Chrome.

  • Yep, this.

    Ditto.

    I'm also having the issue and it's particularly irritating on touch screens, where click placement isn't that accurate in the first place.

    Yeah, I'll be waiting for the page to finish loading so I can click on the Search field on the upper right to put the typing focus onto it, and a tenth of a second before my left mouse-button click finishes happening.... that danged orange banner pops in under the mouse pointer and my mouse click launches the message from that instead,  Aggravates the heck outta me.

    I reported this back in September towards the bottom of page 2 of this thread: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/519106/website-improvements-and-updates-incoming/p2

    Yup, same problem here. Firefox on Windows 10 & Big Sur.

  • And chrome on Android while using 'Desktop Site'. Infact, makes the menu at the top utterly unusable, and need to flip to 'Mobile' mode until I next need to see stuff that's invisible in mobile mode - like 'Required Products'.
