layout issues - and fixes

Post by lemonacid »

I played Canvas a few times yesterday (or maybe the day before) and I really enjoyed it. Wanted to play it again and they changed the layout, it's super narrow now, but to see the cards and requires a lot of scrolling. Anyone know why they changed it? It is unplayable now! Just terrible :(

They changed it because of mobile players. Some people already said it's horrible and should be changed to optional (including me :) )

yeah, i was thinking this might be better in mobile view, but on desktop it's horrendous. Where else on the forum are people talking about this?

I've read your concerns. The only thing that really changed on desktop is the fact that scoring cards are now in a 2x2 grid instead of a horizontal line. Would it help if that is reverted to a horizontal line for wide screen?

A new UI update has been released. Please provide constructive feedback if you think it can be improved (and how).

is it possible to display two players next to each other?? Now I have to scroll and scroll and scroll and scroll again to see both, me and the second player


and maybe this improvement: when you do a mouseover a zoom-in-picture (als je met de muis eroverheen gaat een vergrote versie van de kaart)

Did you try the new layout? If your screen is wide enough it will already display players next to each other. There are now also quick scroll buttons to jump to a specific player.
