Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum and, first of all, I would like to thank the guy who maintain DT. You gives us some of your time so we can save some of ours on playing DF. Your work is much appreciated!
I would like to make a suggestion, kinda cosmetic one, but could be good for those who, like me, play on notebook or simply doesn't have a big screen. To show all the jobs columns at the same time, it's required for us, People of the Smaller Resolutions (maybe we are the Dwarf Screens
), to close all the docks. Just like this:
Sure, it is more than enough to work on, but the docks kinda have some easy-to-read info, specially the "Dwarf Details" one. Now, if we want to, we can make it float on the screen instead of being attached to it, just like this:
Again, sure its enough to inform me relevant things about mr. Stukos Kûbukonol. But it's a little bit clumsy to have to open and close this dock every now and then. In fact, it is quite clumsy, indeed, and even mr. Kûbukonol agrees with it.
Now, if we happen to have a little tweak on that floating window, the people of the Dwarf Screens would be much obliged. Lets say that someone puts a little button at the left side of the "close window" button on the floating dock, just like this:
(ok, the button I happen to have in hand isn't all that little... Don't blame me! Blame Windows!)
So, let's say I want to keep that dock opened, minimizing it would be amazing just like this:
I don't know if it is feasible, but if it is, than it is an easy way to rise the happiness of the people of the Dwarf Screens, so that their Dwarf Therapist may be engarved with little docks windows that menaces with spikes of info.
And, since I'm already here, is there anyone having trouble to assign dwarves to squads from DT? Mine shows greyed option on that righ button menu, even if I clearly have an active, not full squad. I can remove from squad, but not assign...
Edit: Yes, mine is the nwest version, 20.6.6, i think.. Edit 2: Nevermind... It happens that you can't assign a dwarf to a sqad if you are on the military tab, because DT for some reason greys out the option, but it works on the other tabs.
