Fummbl java screen

Post by TheDoc »

Hi all,

How do you shrink the screen so you can access the chat bar. I played Friday and couldn't speak to the underworld coach I was playing... felt a bit rude about "ignoring him" :oops:

You'll probably get a better answer from the FUMBBL forums, but this help page may help you out?

There's also a way of getting to the chat bar so you can type, even if you can't see it - something like clicking in the chat window then tabbing? - but I can't remember what it is...

I had the same problem - I moved my windows task bar from the bottom of the screen to either the left or the right in order to access the chat

Yes, this works if you can't get the fix to work.

I have this issue when I play on my wife's Mac Book. Not being a huge fan of Mac's I had to suffer through this issue the first couple of times. I did learn that you can tab to the chat bar. I also learned that you can also slide the window to the side to see stuff in the corner that's being hidden. However, recently I discovered that the easiest way is to just reposition the dock to the left or the right of the screen. Thanks to my relatively small knowledge of Macs it took me an embarrassing amount of time to figure out how easy it was to do this, but problem solved none the less.

If you cannot stall out for an 8 turn drive to score with dwarves then you need to go and play canasta with your dad..if you can find him.
