how to see more than a tiny bit of the game log?

Post by vonafortim »

I love playing games on BGA but I cannot figure out how to use the game log effectively. I just want to view everything that's happened since my last turn, but I can't find any way to do that besides clicking the skinny red triangle bar at the bottom of the log, scrolling down, clicking, scrolling, clicking, scrolling, etc. It can take 20 clicks to get back to my last turn. (for example, i'm playing galactic cruise with 3 other people right now).
I'm hoping there's a setting I missed or a button i'm not seeing that opens the log in a new window with a normal scrollbar.

Hello,
You could try using my extension with this option: https://en.doc.boardgamearena.com/Chrom ... ating_menu
It allows you to open the log in a popup on demand, and everything is displayed with a scrollbar.
If that doesn't quite suit you, I'm open to any ideas for improving the extension!
