Alignment of previews isn't correct

[dreknl]

Bug or misunderstanding?

Problem:

• In 'Slides' mode, the little preview on the left doesn't show a correct preview. The content is shifted.
• In 'Overview' mode, the previews are also shifted.
• In 'Present' mode, the alignment of the slides is shifted from the 'Overview' mode.

Tested browsers:

• Firefox 23.0.1 on openSUSE 12.3 KDE 4.10.5
• Chromium 30.0.1553.0 (209444) on openSUSE 12.3 KDE 4.10.5
• Firefox 23.0.1 on Windows XP SP3

Reproduce:

• make two slides with text -> alignment bug in small previews on the left, see screenshot 1 and 2
• click on 'Overview' -> misalignment of content of slides, see screenshot 3
• make first slide larger (e.g. 8 instead of 3), see also screenshot 3
• align the slides (e.g. top is equal), again see screenshot 3
• click on 'Present' and the content is correct! But the alignment is not what to expect from the 'Overview', screenshot 4

Yes, this has been a long standing issue. It should be resolved once I complete the "markdown" integration as that requires a number of updates to the preview windows.

Preview windows are looking pretty good:

Still need to do some testing before it is live.

Hi,

Appreciate your work! Thanks!
For me, the biggest problem is that the placement of the slides in 'Present' mode is different than the placement of the slides in the 'Overview' mode (see difference in screenshots 3 and 4). The content of the slides in 'Slides' mode is the same as in the 'Present' mode, so I can live with that (but you already fixed it :-) ).

Because the placement of the slides in 'Present' mode is different than the placement of the slides in the 'Overview' mode, it is almost impossible to make the presentation you want. For me, this is basic functionality.

Again, I appreciate your work. So to do something (really small, because I'm no programmer, sorry) in return, I will translate the program in dutch. Despite this is the wrong place to ask, can you tell me how I can change the language now? Or does it take automatically the language of the used browser?

I'd appreciate it. Strut automatically takes the language of the browser. The set of text that needs translation is here: https://github.com/tantaman/Strut/blob/master/app/locales/en.js
