Is this the right place to request features?

[Michael Borbor]

If it is the right place, could I suggest that the select forum combobox should appear in every web page from the forums and not only on the Forums Home Page, it requires too many clicks to change from a forum to another.

Thanks

Since your point refers to the forums in general and not a specific product, this is the place.

This forum is read by Adobe Admin, so it's up to them to decide what to do about it.

There are a lot of other problems being dealt with at the moment though.

This is not a bad idea for the Web interface! Just curious though, where would you suggest this (select form control) be placed in the current Web interface? Hmm, maybe under the Browse link in the #jive-userbar-droplink li selector ? That seems like a good place ATM.

Woa! Worst case of TinyMCE editor experience I've ever had here! This happens to be the first time I've used this same computer to serve up music (WinAmp [version unknown] on Win XP Pro) while visiting forums.adobe.com. I usually play music from a physical, separate CD player & amplifier or, occasionally,  from a different computer over LAN. (MAN, this is hard to type!).

Any chance you other editor/performance complainants are running a music player while typing in this TinyMCE editor? If so, which OS and player?

WOW, but this is horrid on this dual Xeon box (two physical processor chips plus hyperthreading) in this current XP Pro SP3 boot configuration.

(If no relavent replies to my OT, I may try to replicate later and post results if I can replicate tonight's performanceee.)

P.S. Last time I looked, there were around 530 choices for forums in the Search select box.

Browse > Forums lead to a full sized list, roughly alphabetical with the addition of 'Adobe' on a fairly random basis - eg Adobe Illustrator but InDesign. Seems pretty straightforward.

There's also a thread for small feature requests, I've just retrieved it from the next page.

It took a bit of getting used to, but have you tried going to History/Show Complete History ? That's how I browse the forums quickly. I think your suggestion is a valid though.

As an aside; Hope they get the e-mail issues sorted soon, (with the reboot today) ! I want real threading and no repeat(er) e-mail posts !

[Michael Borbor]

Yes S.D.A that sometimes is helpful the browse history. But in my case I'm in the Flex Forums, so first I have to go to Flex General then Flex, then If I want to change I have to go back to Flex General to select Flex Data Services and only then I have a browse history, but If I want to check the AIR forums I still have to go to the Forums home page and and the AIR forum also have to choices so my browse history looses not only one but two items.

Its possible for the forum host to arrange to add a link box to the right column that contain links to frequently accessed or relaed forums.  This is done in some of the forums already.
