I've noticed this also but in a different place. When I download an article and press ALT+Space to view it in the split pane, sometimes I have to ALT+Space twice to remove it and then get it back again to see the vertical scroll bar in the pane. Sometimes the text in the pane is truncated as well, w...

Alex, any chance you could rename the forums to better reflect what's inside? For example, I come here with this bookmark. It shows all the new posts since my last visit. Now if there are, e.g. posts in the NP forum 'Support' and one in the UE 'Support' sections, I cannot tell which they are from wi...

Coming soon...

First off A help file. The one you had for news pro was great I hope a similar one is in the works for UE. (sorry feeling lost with all the features you have here) The only help file right now is located from Help->Help notes, a simple text file. I assume Alex is thinking that, for now, mainly NP u...

Alex said that most features of NP are easy to implement in UE so he wanted to devote more time to ensuring stability and optimising the database. I think full-blown filters will be along very soon, judging from what he said fairly recently.

Personally I prefer the new display. It's easier to notice if a particular server is hanging, etc. because you don't have to click each individual bar to get more information about that thread. I think it looks a lot cleaner.

Several of the more unusual features in NP are not in UE, like NP's server search, but I'm sure it'll eventually be added to UE as it was to NP. If you mean XPAT, it's been in UE from the very beginning. Add a new group (you can duplicate by adding an already existing group again) but set it as a s...

Due to the layout of the Antec case I'm using, the SATA cable touches the computer case... ...Then, as soon as I put the side of the case back on, trouble again. Took it off, no trouble. Hmm... interesting theory there. The inside of my case (full tower, four hard drives (2 IDE ribbon cables and 2 ...

To add my opinion: I've used Maxtor drives exclusively for several years now and never had a single problem. (Other than the fact I seriously need to update two drives because they're still 5400rpm... :( ) My fastest drive (SATA) I run games from and download headers/bodies to and have done for a fe...

Hmm... Yes. I must have been thinking of... something else.

The icon for multipart posts and the one for downloaded attachments has the same color and look very much alike, and it's easy to overlook a downloaded attachment in a row of multiparts posts. How about making the color of the attachment icon a bit darker green, and the mulitpart icon more yellow? ...
