However, that is offset by the fact that on DU4 the Navigate button is on screen at all times.


since it wasn't on screen for me, and I was wondering if it was another oddity of this tablet...and then I realized I was using Skinner Mode. I've been switching modes so often, along with switching between DU3 and 4, that I sometimes forget which one I'm using.


I should also point out that on the mobile version of DU3 there is no search function at all. That has been improved upon in the DU4 mobile version, which allows you to search from the Help & Search page.


I hadn't even realized that since I hadn't used the mobile version of DU3, had that account setting on DU3 on Standard.


I made some concessions in the DU4 desktop design in order to improve things for mobile users.


Kudos for doing that, and I apologize for having done so much griping. I need to remember there are a lot of DUers who access DU only (or most of the time) by phone. So they need those large Navigate and My Stuff buttons on screen.

I guess I just got too spoiled being able to see so much of the DU3 board using Standard mode on a tablet held vertically. It was nice to be able to skim down 30+ thread titles on a board page without having to scroll at all, so I was doing minimal scrolling there.
