      Hello,

      Info for Bounty send by PM.

      Got it… and sent.  Thank you again for your efforts not only on the package but the deployment scheme as well.

      I'm seeing one small anomaly where the screen graphics don't align in the bottom right corner.  But I've got what I need so I don't care if it can or will be fixed, just wanted to let you know.

      Thanks,
      Rick

        Thank you, and regarding the footer display issue in the right corner, this is listed in the package description: - Fixed footer (somewhat).
        I've seen the issue, but already spent 2 hours trying to fix it, without success, so I gave up as it is not really a show stopper.

        Fred

            bottom right hand corner where the graphics line meets the copyright footer.  Like he said, no biggie just an anomaly.

                  fredch thanks for the awesome job on your widescreen pkg!

                  Does any body know if 2.1 has widescreen support?

                  Thanks!

                            I'm being as jovial as I can be on the issue.  From what I can tell the "OMG Widescreen is broken" message has been received by everyone.  For me, its not a show stopper since I never liked the old package one little bit.  But if someone had one available that didn't break things half the time, I'd load it in a heart beat myself.  It always made my system flakey in the past.

                            From what I can tell, even having upgraded with the widescreen package in place and then removing it continues to break things in the web gui.

                              There is a widescreen theme already checked in for 2.2, but it required too many other changes to be in 2.1.x

                              For a quick hack, this patch can be used for now:

                                    It's not my code it was from someone else here on the forum. Install the system patches package and add it in there.

                                      At least looks a whole LOT less intrusive than the WS "package" - and a snap to revert as well ;)  8)

                                        Frankly.. not sure what is all the hype about this package not being present on 2.1. Is browsing the landing page down that time consuming ????

                                          Could someone please post a screen capture of what this patch looks like?

                                          Is it simple to add / revert - using the system patch manager?

                                          Sorry for (perhaps?) stupid questions :)

                                          TIA
