CODE Tags and Description bug reports/suggestion
« on: November 02, 2011, 05:34:16 pm »
Netham45, while the new code tags with line numbering are nice, for some reasons they look kinda weird with the new fonts. Also i noticed some display glitch causing numbers to not be aligned with the code. See the attachment below.

The misalignment of numbers doesn't seem to happen all the time, though. However when it does, it can be confusing which line is what.

Also the text is too big IMHO for code tags. Not only that but now that it doesn,t use a monospaced font anymore, it can make it harder to post code or read parts of it (especially TI-BASIC with strings or ASCII art).

Would it be possible to change the font and its size back to what it was prior the addition of numbering?

Thanks in advance.

Also, another thing about code tags: Would it be possible to check the CSS if it would be possible to change it for code tags so in Chrome they no longer end up being tiny when put in SPOILER tags? I think the CSS in the following topic (inside the js code) might help: http://ourl.ca/13513/254534

Besides that, there's a bug with Topic Descriptions: When editing the first post of the topic, the description is removed from the field.

Another suggestion: Can the line numbers be added in JavaScript? The reason I ask for this is because the way it is now, email notifications display code blocks like this:
