v6.11.4 I'm the only one who is not happy with the new event log position hidden in the "Advanced" menu? http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=5883&nowrap=true#33856 : "... our findings suggested it was stressing new people out, making them think something was wrong when it wasn't ..." Well I think "new people" were supposed to use the simple view... |

Even in Simple View you have the messages in BOINC versions before 6.11 And do know that 6.11 is development, it's not a release version. If it were it would be called 6.12.x |

Well it's like that in version 6.12.8 too. I prefer the old way too. At least allow advanced users to set back via command line option or config file? Please? |

Not my decision, and as far as I understand from the developers they won't change it any time soon. |

Well it's like that in version 6.12.8 too. /signed I actually use the event log on a regular basis as it is an excellent summary of all activity. I realize accessing the event log is only two mouse clicks away, but for someone who uses it frequently, the pop up window is much less convenient. I also hope they reconsider. |

Two mouse clicks, or just three fingers away: CTRL + SHIFT + E. (BOINC Manager should be in focus then, or Firefox 4 not opened...) A friend of mine made a very good observation, though. I copied them from their original place to here. Why not go peek? ;-) |
