Been mentioned before, but worth mentioning again

Threads merged: "Can't access population overview when info popup is displayed", "Move the info label"
+1 - another option would be to move the bar over a bit
Just move it down by top-bar size and we are cool. Easy and hopefully bug free change :)
Seems to me that it's fixed. I can access it now whilst having those messages

sadly thats only product of your resolution, you probably have wide screen.
this is todays screen of unit production from my pc (17" 1280x1024) showing that its not fixed yet

all that is needed to be done is move those popups to have top limit under the top bar, thats all
I can confirm that it has NOT been fixed
It moved a little (left) but not enough then. still would of preferred it moved down so it was below tooltip ;)
It hasn't moved at all from what I can tell. What people are seeing must be differences in screen size / resolution. I do hope they do something about it because it's quite frustrating to be looking at my troop distribution to decide what I need to build and then "a stone deposit has become depleted" and wait.....wait....wait.....ok, where was I?.... 500 soldiers, 250 cavalry and ... "a marble deposit has become depleted" and wait.... wait... wait... ok - that was 500 soldiers......
All I can say is that I couldn't access it before and I can now. Didn't change a thing to my screen. Hence me thinking it was resolved.
If you resize the browser window, it changes the position of the nags.Quote:

very annoying and steals our normal gameplay time
BB please do something about it...
Well it was sort of fixed a few patches ago, and moved slightly to the left ( not really far enough from my point of view, but at least you could access the tool tip from its right edge with message there )
It reverted back to its old state with the event starting ( I think it could be worse actually) , I'm guessing the event timer might be nudging it over, or the incarnation of the event is written pre -patch version. JMO though ;)
I didn't see any changes. Must be dependent on screen size. Mine is small.Quote:

This has been requested for a long time. Might as well chime in again... move it down enough to be able to see the population icon (or move that somewhere else).

+1- very annoying- you put in settles in MHouse and you are told that you put them ( as you did not know) an that prevent you from seeing how many you can stil add.
I need to see the population ./ army indicator on my home island - every collie , buff etc covers it - cant it be swapped with the gem indicator on the other end of the bar - that does not need to be seen more than once a day or so?
Merged
+1 from me - or a way to drag the notifications to a position that suits you.
Unbelievable that such a small problem can be spoken about for 3 years and not fixed.. terrible design.. useless support..Quote:

if its such a big deal to you buy a screen larger than a shoe box.
I keep seeing updates and improvements on the game lately. Some are quite welcome (Star stacking). Others? Meh.
However, there is one I know EVERYONE wants and yet, for unknown reasons, you refused to implement: moving the notification pop-up away from covering the Population icon. That is probably the most important onscreen information of all, and yet it gets covered every time we do ANYTHING on our islands!
Why, why, why WHY?? :(
BB works in mysterious ways. :rolleyes:
[Merged]
That seems to depend on your screen size. If you have a large screen the notification will be between the top bar and avatar, and with smaller screens it gets pushed in and over the pop tooltip. I bet BB uses nice large screens :D
Really? lol
Well, we computer impaired folks need them to fix it. It is extremely annoying.
I'm not a programmer but I fail to see how hard it is to MOVE the stupid notifications OR the population icon to a different position.
++++++ 1
Suggested many times before. I suggested it myself.
It is very annoying when you order troops in barracks that you cant see what you already have every time a pop up message appear.
Again we need feedback from BB that they either tell us this somehow mysteriously cant be fixed,- or that they are working on it :p
This is a suggestion, not a bug, so a fix is not needed. I can tell you that it was passed on and, if it's going to be implemented, you should find it in a future Change Log.Quote:

Good call. ;)
Because it's not a bug, it belongs in the suggestions section, so it was merged to an already opened thread here that was requesting the same thing.Quote:

As for my level of interest, I can assure you it is equal to all other suggestions. :)
Yeah I agree,
I think the right corner would be a good place.
If for some reason moving the information window wouldn't be practical, what I'm hearing is that players don't mind that it's there - it's only that you can't review your population and troops any other way.
How about adding that information to the economic summary - including what the current rate of incoming settlers is and what buffs might be active affecting that? Even perhaps troops currently queued? I would find having all that information in one area very useful and I think it would fit in with the other elements in the economic summary - just put it in it's own section.
If it's impractical to move that information window how about moving the pop and building section of the top bar over to the other side of the resource bar, surely there would be less of a issue for the player in that info window obscures the tools and coin display for a few seconds.
Well it should be possible to find some kind of solution. I would rather chose not to have the pop up messages at all, than to have it as it is. It turns the messages into spam. Especially when you are trying to recruit in barracks and what to see what troops you already have,
Why for the love of god this hasn't been included in the latest update since the Devs were already working around the info bar, it would be so easy to make yet we keep bragging about it for years...Quote:

I simply would suggest a small change, the make the notification under the resource bar instead of cover it, i mean get it a little away from top, something like what I describe with images :
From this :

To this:

Why?
Simply its just annoying that sometimes i need to wait the notification to disappear to see how many troops i have, free settlers and so on, if you know what I mean, when you put cursor over the population number, you can see the troops that you have.
That's annoying that we don't have another way, and simply its annoying friend buff my buildings, or I collect things in land, and notification stacked, and i just waiting to all of this to finish so i can see troops.

xibor, doro and urd all have good suggestions, but this shouldn't be included in an update. its something that needs FIXING (now) not updating.
This and the stupid barracks system is really starting to annoy me, which is ridic because its just a game and i'm here to have fun! I would just like to say as an IT manager if any of the BB programming team have a job interview with me they will be laughed out of the building.
Why not just remove it all together? As long as it shows on news that's all that is needed.
I'd go along with that, if there was no other choice.Quote:
