View Full Version : Red Flag isn't an effective notification

I think the Red Flag notification should be repositioned or even better totally redesigned

SUGGESTION:- When there is an alert...
[1] It should appear on the HM2 home page next to the graph where ads for HM products/upgrades appear
[2] If you can't do that then at least make the Red Flag "throb" [but frankly who bothers looking down at the bottom bar?]

This was posted today by a user:-
I didn't have time settings adjusted properly, and my auto-center options were wrong (changed it to always autocenter) and it works now.

For some reason I didn't see the Alert Viewer mentioned in any of the Zoom HUD problems threads so I thought I'll point it out here. There's this flag thing at the bottom right of your screen and if you click on it you can see what's causing the problems.

I was using HM2 for TWO years before I realised that Red Flag thing on the bottom bar had information attached to it if it's "clicked" - I couldn't even tell you how long the Red Flag has been part of the interface. Two weeks? Two months? One year?

I wonder how much support effort could have been saved by making these flag notices more obvious?

Happy Sunday all

at the very least, it should be included in the FAQ IMO
