WPCentral App forum comments bug

[L2nak]

Just wondering if the comments section in the app while in landscape mode will be fixed? Cause part of it gets cut off if you open in landscape. You have to go back to portrait and then landscape for the comments not to be cut off on the left.

Are you talking about the comments for the news articles? I can open them in landscape and nothing is cut off on the left.

i know this haven't much to do but..my WPCentral (news) tile broke - it's all black :/ it happened after i started using light theme...do i need to reinstall the app to fix it?

edit: apparently it fixed itself weird lol

Yeah I mean the news articles. Attached a PHOTO.
And like I wrote, if I open the comments in portrait and then move to landscape everything is fine. It's only when I start with landscape.

As for Nessinhaw:
That sometimes happens when you're having a connectivity issue and the app doesn't full load. Try letting it fully load and see if that fixes it.

Thanks L2nak, I'll alert the developer...

It's a frustrating one this, because if you turn sideways the first time the bug happens, then if you rotate back to portrait again before going landscape once more there is no problem.

It's a bug in the OS which causes the minimised version of the app drawer to behave unexpectedly in landscape orientation.
I have tried unsuccessfully to come up with a workaround in the past but I'll have another look

Thanks for the info, good to know you're already on top of it; and great app btw!

Mine still doesn't do it. But now everytime I use it I look for it and wait for it to happen! Glad you got an answer L2nak.
