Alhambra, tile placing suggestion

Hello,
If possible I would like to suggest to have the option to see where a valid place for placing tiles on the game when building Alhambra. The game now tells you that placing the tile in a location is valid or not, but only when you try to place the tile. Would be much better to highlight on the board only the posible locations the tile placing will be valid.
The same option is done in many other games such as Carcasonne, it saves time and would make the game more fluid. It is frustrating when the game offers to place a tile but the only option is going to the reserve.
What do you think?

+1 to this, plus I would like to be able to confirm my tile placement(s), instead of an immediate locked in decision.

Plus +1 to each of the above (tile placing options, and confirmation of placement). But I’m glad to see one of my favourite games online here. Thanks for adding it.

I am strongly supporting this amendment. Sorry for my wording, but the actual drag-and-drop mechanism is pure crap. In my first game, on PC I misplaced the tiles more often, without any chance to correct it. And on Android, it is simply not possible to put the tiles on my Alhambra, because the screen does not scroll.

+1 to this.
Also the drag and drop was problematic for my friend on their older small screened laptop. They had to pick the tile up, scroll the screen then drop the tile. Often took a few attempts.

The real issue with the dra and drop is that there's something fundamentally wrong with the scaling of the tiles such that the borders do not always correctly show on the tiles in the alhambra making it difficult to see where to place tiles correctly.

The screen should scroll when dragging a tile! we were able eventually to move the screen with the arrow keys, but not having the screen automatically scroll when dragging was a big problem.

I have an issue on my pc when alahambra when placing tiles. As it gets bigger the screen zooms out more and more and makes placing tiles very difficult.
It makes it easy to place a tile in the wrong spot. also its harder to even get the tile to go into the proper place, took me over 2 minutes to get the last piece to stick.

Je suis entièrement d'accord. C'est vraiment désagréable d'avoir une suggestion de placement et quand on veut poser la tuile, le jeu nous dit que l'on ne peut pas. Pouvez-vous remédier à cela ?
I totally agree. It's really unpleasant to have a suggestion of placement and when we want to put the tile, the game tells us that we cannot. Can you fix this?
