      How do you see previous moves, as you could in the old format?

        @nina-bellak You can see the last word which shows at the top left and clicking on it will open the move list making it more accessible during the game

          @lexulous Please bring back multi language welcome to the site! I used to enjoy trying to work out what language it was before clicking on it! Not sure why it was removed on last update? It has been there forever.
          Also, the "pop-up" when you hover over the shuffle button is massive and very distracting, especially when you shuffle a lot. Any chance of the option to switch off those pop ups? Or bring back the "press space bar to shuffle" option?
          Thanks!

            @shaggydogswerve We'll add that back soon. You can disable tooltips from the Settings.

              @lexulous Thanks! Wish I had known about the tool tip switch before (or what it actually did) Now just need to make sure not to press pass instead of swap

                I hated it when I first saw it but now I'm getting used to it I'm beginning to love all the new changes. One question - is there a "refresh" button hidden somewhere? I'm having to use the Chrome refresh option which means I have to log in again every time. Otherwise - great job, thanks!

                  @shaggydogswerve, i was caught once by the no confirmation "pass". I guess it was sloppy mousery on my part. (But i think it should have a confirm on it._)

                    @jrp32 The confirmation for pass works only in email mode. In LIVE mode having no confirmation is better for quick games.

                      @lexulous I'm not sure if this is related to the new format, but I'm no longer getting email notifications of moves my opponents have made. Could you please tell me how to fix this? Thanks!

                        @lexulous Ever since the new format came out I am not getting email notifications of my partner's moves. Luckily I have one old notification for this game, and I use that to check. But what is going to happen when this game is over and we try to start a new game. I need a fix NOW.

                          @liz-riches Me too Liz-riches, despite having had them before the new format and despite my ticking "receive email notification". No-one has answered this question yet. I have had to keep a very old game in my inbox and click on it to play.

                              @clarisepatton Me too Clarise. I never, ever play Live - only play from email notifications. No-one has answered this query yet. I hvae had to keep an old game in my inbox - I click on it, then go to NEXT and it brings me to the current games.

                                  Thank you. You fixed my concern about not being able to enlarge the letters on my iPad email version.

                                    @shaggydogswerve has mentioned a previous "press space bar to shuffle" option that I was unaware of or I would have used it constantly. Not wanting to have to keep clicking all the time – which is more difficult on a trackpad than with a mouse – I quickly devised a Mac Keyboard Maestro macro to click on the button, but I keep having to adjust the window to conform to the macro, or to adjust the macro when something has changed in the window.

                                    I was just now getting ready to suggest a keycode for shuffle and undo ("undo" is totally appropriate, since anything put on the board is "done"; "recall", again, looks pompous and pretentious, high-falutin' and la-di-da, and makes one think of Gavin Newsom and similar political unpleasantries), and if keycodes are possible for these – as I suppose they are – they're possible also for pass and swap, and why not. The space bar would be fine for shuffling, so why don't you reinstate that as suggested. Thanks.

                                      So new format doesnt apply to the Facebook game yet - will it?

                                        @clarisepatton I have been using an old game to access recent ones also for several weeks now , and afraid I am going to lose access. wish they would fix this problem with Microsoft soon!

                                          @haggade I even changed my email trying to notification t o gmail. Not working. I too am saving an old game or checking every so often to see. It's a hassle. I just made a new account, Maybe this will work as my cohorts are still getting email notifications. I've written to admin three times, always the same answer log in to play. Not user friendly.

                                            @lexulous When do you expect to have games sent to e-mail? Why am I the only one that has the new format among all the people that I play with? Thanks.
