Annoying Header

11/19/2014 4:19 PM

This half page header now comes up at the top of every home window that opens.

Community

  • All
  • News & Analysis
  • Products & Suppliers
  • Standards Library
  • Reference Library
  • Community

It didn't copy in true format or size.

How do I get rid of this terrible annoyance?

I'm getting it too, even though the same links are available as tabs at the top of the page. Getting it both on my PC and my mobile.

All that copious screen real estate available, so why not?

What's really annoying of late is that their popups - such as for GAing a post or marking subscribed threads as 'Read', etc. - now quite often lock up my browser, which I have to close because none of the tabs work after that.

I'll need to get in the habit of opening CR4 in its own window so that I can kill the window separately without closing all my other tabs as well.

I miss Mark Gaulin's stuff. It WORKED.

Agreed. The header is incredibly annoying. In fact, I'll call it stupid and that's from someone who rarely, if ever, gets drawn into negative commentary or complaints.

That happened to me once. So far.

I hit refresh and the usual screen header showed up - which still wastes a lot of valuable real estate.

Thanks. That seems to work, at least for now.

CONTROL F5 also works to get rid of that header. I think this was a relic of the site upgrade. Thanks for your patience!

Thanks.

What patience?

Member Usbport showed me that trick yesterday, and it worked nicely.
