The 'roll-over' text for the landers has broken - can't figure out why though, it all looks fine... sbandrews (t) 18:48, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mars template display problem?

[edit]

@Huntster and other editors: Recent discussion copied below seems relevant to this talk page - esp since the template display problem may be somewhat unresolved and ongoing at the moment - Comments and/or Experiences from editors welcome - in any case - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 12:25, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mars surface template

Re: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Features_and_artificial_objects_on_Mars&diff=746448856&oldid=746414812, what browser are you using? I'm on Firefox v.46 and when I made that edit all alignments were precisely (I literally measured pixel by pixel) on the borders of the images. I wonder if our templates render differently in different browsers? That would be bad... Huntster (t @ c) 14:12, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

@Huntster: Thanks for your comments - yes - Browser type may be a concern - I usually use the latest version of Chrome on my dell wintel-xp & hp laptop wintel-xp (presently, Chrome-v49.0.2623.112 m; Firefox-v50.0b9; MSIE-v8.0.6001,18702 are installed on both) & dell wintel-10 pcs - the dell wintel-xp (& hp laptop wintel-xp) Chrome browser & MSIE browser seem *completely ok* with all alignments at the moment with the present configurations - however - on my dell wintel-xp Firefox browser, *only* the label on "Curiosity" seems misaligned: ie, overlaps the icon ~1-2px; all other labels seem *completely ok* on the Firefox browser - on my Toshiba tablet (android/v4.0.4-latest), three labels ("Viking-1" & "Schiaparelli" & "Curiosity") are misaligned: ie, all leave small 1-2px spaces left of the icons - hope this helps in some way - may try some of my other browsers/pcs later - Thanks again for your comments - and - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 14:55, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
@Huntster: UPDATE - similar results as above with the present configurations with all Browsers using my very latest pc (Dell xps 8900 desktop Intel core i7 - model x89002506blk; Windows 10 64-bit) with Chrome v53.0.2785.101 m (64-bit) & MSEdge v25.10586.0.0/MSEdgeHTML v13.10586 & Firefox v49.0.2 browsers installed - all labels are *completely ok* with the Chrome & MS browsers but there is one misaligned label with the Firefox browser ("Curiosity" label overlaps icon by 1-2px) - all other labels seem "completely ok" (ie, no other overlaps/no significant spaces) with the Firefox browser - hope this helps - iac - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 15:59, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
@Huntster:  Done - Possible Compromise Solution => "Curiosity" label - adj "left" to 407px (from 410px) - all alignments on the "Mars surface template" now seem sufficiently ok w/ Chrome v53, MSEdge v25/v13 and Firefox v49 browsers - iac - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 17:48, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
Welp, it's still all weird on my screen, but you know I appreciate your efforts to fix things. These display errors are very odd. Ah well. Huntster (t @ c) 01:34, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

FWIW - Besides "browser type", other variables affecting label alignment in the template *may* be the following => "monitor type", "OS type", "screen size", "screen resolution" and "video card type" - iac - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 12:48, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Schiaparelli is East of Opportunity, not West?

[edit]

I think the map has the wrong position for Schiaparelli relative to Opportunity. If I am not mistaken, Schiaparelli is East of Opportunity, but the map shows it to the West. Could someone check and correct this, if it is the case? Tony Mach (talk) 09:42, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Difficulty on smaller devices

[edit]

From investigating within the Wikipedia iOS app, I believe this template has difficulty rendering properly on devices with a small screen width. Both mobile web and the Wikipedia iOS app show this problem. The map scrolls horizontally on these small screens, but the elements on the map are fixed and don't horizontally scroll.
