Anyone know if you can position the inspection icons/totals (the yellow warning triangles and the spellchecker) that are normally in the top right on the left instead?
Also, is there a way to increase the size of them?
(Reason: I use a wide-ish monitor. I struggle to make a habit of looking at them because my eyes have to move all the way across to the edge of the screen to do so. If they were on the left, they'd be in my eyeline a lot more. I tried moving the Project window to the right, with the editor on the left. That didn't really help…)
You cannot move it. You can only make it smaller (so it only shows a coloured square: like it was back in 2020.2 and older versions: see https://stackoverflow.com/a/64756369/783119 for that).
Try Problems tool window -- it should list all found issues in a file as a list and you can place it on the left to your editor (instead of the default bottom).

Is there any way to remove the space between the UI tabs and the top edge of the screen in Sublime Text?
It is very nice being able to select tabs with a mouse, without having to aim. When the top of the tabs is right next to the top of the screen - I don't have to be precise to click on the tab - I can just move the mouse up vertically as far as I want - the cursor won't go any further cause its already on the edge of the screen.
Surprisingly so many software suites these days entirely miss on this great usability feature, putting useless pixels between the tabs and the edge of the screen.
I really hope someone could point out a way to remove that space in Sublime Text.
You can probably fix this by finding the correct option in your .sublime-theme file, though I'm not sure which one it is. An alternative option would be to use a theme that has rectangular tabs that take up the entire height. Something like this: http://i.imgur.com/5trC1Dm.png
The one I displayed in that screenshot was Spaceblack which you can install through Package Control.
In a SQL Server Integration Services project, the designer view has created a large amount of unused space above the space I'm actually using. Notice the size of the right scrollbar in the following zoomed out view.
When starting the project, the designer's view always starts in the upper left corner, meaning I have to scroll to the bottom to see any of my work. Is there any way to clip the designer's working space to what I'm actually using? I've verified there is absolutely nothing above the containers here.
Click on the Fit to Window view (the square-ish box at the bottom of the slider). Then select all your tasks. Drag all of them together to the left-top corner. After sometime, enlarge the view to 100% (the dark line on the slider). Do it couple times till you have what you want.
Format -> Auto Layout -> Diagram
This will Auto size your boxes and bring them back to top left. Doing it manually is annoying and almost impossible.
Select all controls and cut it. Click Fit View on Windows bottom right corner. It will resize. Then paste your control back.
I am developing an application with movable charts within a dashboard. Each chart has a set of options in the top right of the element that allows full screening, closing that chart etc. Due to image differences (of which I can't change), I have had to use zoom values. This performs exactly as intended in all major browsers, including IE7, but weirdly, not IE9.
http://jsfiddle.net/YkTjp/7/
If you open the fiddle in Chrome and IE9 side by side, you will see the .icons element isn't absolutely positioned to right: 0;, infact it is twice as far left as it should be. As seen below if you can't recreate it.
Image here. If someone could edit my post and embed rather than this link I would appreciate it (don't have 10 rep)
The bottom picture is what it looks like if i remove zoom: 0.5;, and it seems to have the right position correct here. So I can only assume its calculating where to place .icons BEFORE taking the zoom into account.
However, knowing that doesn't put me any closer to a fix. Any ideas?
Unfortunately, since zoom is not a standard CSS component, there is no standard for its application.
Basically, the zoom:0.5 causes the elements to be cut in half, but IE is doing this respective of the space it would have occupied, and aligning them top left of that phantom space, rather than aligning just to the parent. It appears much farther from the right, but it actually lines up on the top, and aligns to the left edge of the zoom:1 components.
Unfortunately, I can't think of a fix for it that isn't Javascript-based, but that is why the problem occurs.
When using Google Chrome on OSX, swiping left or right you'll see a circle with an arrow in either corner, indicating going back and forward in your history, see here:

On a site I am developing, I have these arrows always present, multiply stacked on top of each other, see here:
http://cld.jxpr.se/image/2o0N2O1d2e0t
That is in the middle of the page, at full screen. These arrow only show when the browser window is expanded beyond the max site width.
Any ideas what's going on here?
Thanks

I get the same problem. I'm working on a 27" imac so it might affect me more than most people. i normally just create a new tab and copy paste my url into it. i then close the old tab. not a long term fix though :(
i ran across something i have never seen before. the page has a top div and a footer div. both with an image as background. mirrored the image as well via photoshop.
now the weird thing is, it shows a different color. see http://www.hp-consultants.nl
when i tilt my screen towards me the colors become the same. even in photoshop i notice the difference. does anyone know what is wrong?
ive tried using regular CSS colors instead of a background image, to no effect. even the same image shows a difference
thanks!
There's nothing wrong with your page. Using Photohop's colour picker confirms that the colours are both indeed exactly the same.
The effect probably happens because you're sitting in front of a TFT monitor, whose display is sensitive to the angle you look at it from.
Some useful background information:
LCD Test: Viewing angle
Wikipedia on TFT LCDs:
TN displays suffer from limited viewing angles, especially in the vertical direction. Colors will shift when viewed off-perpendicular. In the vertical direction, colors will shift so much that they will invert past a certain angle.
The colours are exactly the same a quick check with any image editor will tell you that. TFT Monitors can do strange things to colours depending on the viewing angle.
Also our eyes and brains are really not as good at determining colour as we think. Have you ever seen this optical illusion.
The Squares Labeled A & B are the same colour
may be is the orientation of the led, that brights differently. have you tried to get the browser windows to the bottom of the screen so you see the header where the footer is.
Try this:
open 2 browser instances
resize the window of each to view only the header or the footer (one for each)
place the footer window at the top and the header window at the top
switch window places
in my case I see the bottom one always more clear.
Hope this helps you
