Minor stocks sorting issue
« on: December 16, 2007, 02:33:00 pm »

z for status, select stocks.  On page 2 is armor, footwear, headwear, shields and handwear.  Legwear is page 4 - could it be moved to page 2 next to the other clothes/armor?  Also could shift-arror or * be used to advance to the next page the way it works on a unit's p work preferences list?  Currently on this screen and the (u)nit screen I have to wait for arrow key scrolling to slowly advance pages.

The page keys work for paging on screens where you use the arrows.  Are you on a keyboard without them?

I agree with the (small) request to move the legwear.  As for the interface, try typing PgUp and PgDn on your number pad.

doh, busted!  my laptop has a standard inverted T layout for the arrow keys but it doesn't have a numeric keypad - it uses a <fn> key to toggle emulation for one  using IOPKL;,./

They work just fine when I turn numeric keypad emulation on. Sorry for the false alarm.

Don't feel bad.  It took me a while to figure out what the fn key was for on mine.    :)

If software was real world, then it'd be something equivalent of hitting a nail with a hammer and having a building collapse on the other side of town.

Don't worry people, sometimes -moments occur
