Hardly worth asking

A question about a very minor item...

In TC2M the elevator bars did not have a position button (if I remember right). Will this be corrected in Ge... I mean the new game?

[ADukes]

The answer is yes if you mean the scrollbar slider.

[Amish John]

Yeah, thanks. I didn't know that was the technical name for it.

A scroll bar for the new game? For what may i ask?:huh:
Maybe for new zooming features perhaps? :S

[Amish John]

In TC2M on the options screen (especially with CMP3) when choosing your battlefield and order of battle you use the elevator bar arrows to scroll up and down in the available selections, but without the "scrollbar slider" you don't know how near the top or the bottom of the list you are.

I see, you're thinkin about the menus! Scoll bars there are pretty much a given if the menu options are longer than a page. I was thinkin more of the actual battle play.

I wouldn't like that in actually battle.

But it is pretty obvious there will be slide buttons.

[ironsight]

I agree Hanock.
Scroll bars on the main battle screen would be an unnecessary distraction not to mention a PITA when the action gets heavy. I got my SAITEK CYBORG COMMAND Key Pad to easily maneuver around the battle field as is.
However, if for example NSD implements a zoomable map subscreen, all bets are off.

The technical term is thumbnail and yes they are in this game Sorry, sometimes us coders get lazy with the mundain, but necessary.

Obvious, maybe, but since they weren't in TC2M, I just thought I'd ask.
