I'm looking on beta and—though the list of abbreviations and the community links (on RC) no longer open
then close—there is still a lot of movement on the page. This spoils the perception of stability and speed we're aiming for. Here's what I see when I reload the pages on beta as of 9/29:
=On RC page, with Abbreviations and Review Links boxes closed
- {icon check-square color=green} **Search results and list of abbreviations. ** These jump down about a quarter of an inch, then jump up again.
- {icon exclamation-triangle color=red} **List of abbreviations:** During load, the word "expand" disappears, causing the element to shrink in width, then the word reappears, causing the element to get wider again.
- {icon check-square color=green} **'Other review tools' link: ** This blinks away then blinks back into view. - **fixed**
- ~~The color of the link changes during the page reload - it's black when the page is loading; then, it's blue when the page finishes loading.~~ [ @Etonkovidova I don't see this. Do you still see it?]
=On RC page, with with Abbreviations and Review Links boxes open
- {icon check-square color=green} **'Other review tools' box:** The outline of the box disappears and the box contents shift left about 1/8th of an inch, then right again.
- {icon check-square color=green} **Search results and list of abbreviations.**These shift up about 1/4 of an inch and then back down.
- {icon exclamation-triangle color=red} **List of abbreviations box: ** The "[hide] link disappears then reappears (as described above).
=On Watchlist, with Abbreviations box open
- {icon check-square color=green} **Search results:** Jump up about a half inch and then back down. (What appears to be causing this is that when the Edit Your Watched Pages button at top disappears, the text at top re-wraps, then rewraps again when the button comes back.)
- {icon exclamation-triangle color=red} **List of abbreviations box: ** .The "[collapse] link disappears then reappears (as described above).
=On Watchlist, with Abbreviations box closed
- {icon check-square color=green} **Search results:** same as above-up and down 1/2 inch.
- {icon exclamation-triangle color=red} **List of abbreviations:** During load, the word "expand" disappears, causing the element to shrink in width, then the word reappears, causing the element to get wider again. (It also jumps up and down, as above.) ~~!!@Etonkovidova, I don't see the issue of the box getting narrower then wider as being fixed on either production or beta. !!~~
