ScrapGram Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Previously when I was downloading purchases, a broken line appeared around each file download button until I clicked on the next one. It was really great to help me keep my place. Yesterday and today, when I was downloading, the broken line did not appear. I really had to pay attention to what I was doing! Not a bad thing, but I am always doing 2 or 3 things at once, so really appreciated this. Any way to get it back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Arell Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hmmmmm.....interesting, Karen - I've never seen a broken line when I've downloaded before so not sure what to comment about this. I agree it's great to have a placeholder! I get a little confused sometimes too and I've downloaded the same file more than once! I'm sure someone else will know more about the broken line that you got! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValerieT Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I know what you mean by the dotted lines. To keep the dotted lines visible you can't click anywhere else on that page. Also sometimes switching to another tab can cause you to loose them when you click back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DixieLee Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 yes, I appreciate the little lines and when I am done I count all of them to make sure I got them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiza126 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I've never seen dotted lines on my screen. I just have to remember where I last clicked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try so hard to remember where I've clicked last but sometimes when I've bought a lot of things, I do get confused and download it twice - or maybe even three times! :disappearing-smilie: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraC1977 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 In Firefox, I've learned "click on the TAB to return to the page" and the highlight on last-clicked button remains. If you click into the blank part of the the window, due to other windows overlapping, that click "gets focus" and removes it from the button. Here's a link to my book. Hope that helps.

Westina Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hi Karen, same thing with me. I'm using IE 10 and noticed that some time mid-March to early April, that I no longer have a visible anchor on the last download button clicked. Funny, I don't remember it as a broken line but you're right, it was something distinct on the button so that we could see it as a placeholder. I miss it too. I now have to refresh the page and look in the Accesses column if I lose my place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the link to your book. I loved it! It is beautiful. The book I a currently working on is in Portrait, so I will have to go someplace else to get it printed, but I really like the 8.5x 11 landscape view. I am planning to do a heritage album and will more than likely do landscape for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LenaLotta Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I miss it too! Those dotted lines really helped! Especially when downloading the clubs (or a sale). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westina Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Think I've narrowed the culprit down on my machine--the new version of Internet Explorer (vers 10) that auto installed a couple of weeks ago. I conducted a little experiment by using my old PC with IE version 7 to download one of this month's SS Club files. Sure enough, the download button stayed highlighted so I could see where I left off. Here's a screen shot of how it looks with IE 7: So I don't think it is the store web page, but rather the new browser which doesn't display the last clicked button as it did before.

ScrapGram Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Thanks for figuring it out. It was a real mystery to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenrou Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I noticed it was gone last time I downloaded. It is harder to keep up with without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
