Course options dialog appears off-screen (web version, iPad)

Memrise Bug Control Web Bugs
1

From the Home tab, if you tap the “…” icon next to any course in the list of active courses, the floating dialog that appears (containing course options) is displayed off-screen. This means that none of the options can be selected.

This happens every time and is present in the web version of Memrise on iPad 4.

Thanks!

I think I have a similar problem in Android.

Screenshot as requested. Note: the floating “options” dialog is just visible on the right-hand side, near the top.

is this on your computer? if so, try zooming out a bit, that should help

Not on iPad it doesn’t. Zooming out (pinching) beyond the screen width results in the tab view being displayed. I believe the same sort of limitation applies on mobile (you can’t zoom out any further than the main frame width).

I noticed this on Android a long time ago. It’s a problem with Firefox, but not with Chrome.
There are some key differences I have observed between how the Memrise webpages work under different browsers on Android.
In Firefox

  • audio from the course will stop dead any other audio happening on the device
  • sticky accent keys eg. Pressing ‘ followed by e to get é works perfectly well
  • can’t see the course options box no matter what you do
  • can´t see the ‘save and exit’ button properly when you want to stop half-way through a session – it’s nearly off the screen
    In Chrome
  • Audio from the course will dim background audio , eg. Pandora, but does not usually stop it (although it does sometimes – seems to depend on how long the audio from Memrise goes for)
  • Sitcky accent keys just stick and are applied to all following characters – it’s a real pita, and the only reason I can’t use Chrome all the time.
  • Can see the course options
  • Can see the ‘save and exit’ button

So I use Firefox because of the sticky keys issue, and switch to Chrome when accented characters are not an issue.
NONE of these issues occur with using any browser on a Windows PC, and sorry I don’t use any i-things so I can’t say whether changing browser would work or not.
