Hi Marc - thanks for your initial feedback; here are my responses:-.
1) Nice -- pick the card from the card tableau! very useful. (new I think)
2) also nice -- labels for the leaders. (new I think)
3) minor glitch - when picking the 75 card hand, it instead looks like the clock is turned on. then it gets turned back off again and the correct cards are laid out. Not exactly broken but disconerting
4) Can you please add the usual button that nearly every vassal module has, to 'hide# the pieces so we can look at the terrain without it cluttered with pieces?

Crossposted from BGG:
Few comments:
- my opponent (Guillaume Gleize) complained of not being able to magnify cards on the map or his hand
- he also noted that the main toolbar is too wide to fit in one row on his 15: screen so it wraps around
- I'd love for the charts window to be a bit narrower (it uses a lot of real estate), which you could do by reducing the size of the chart images
- “Hide cards” button in hand windows does not seem to be working

I tried the new update v3.5a17 beta and finished waterloo. crushing french victory. Thank you!
1. magnification at 1.5x is great for me on my system. Great!
2. I noticed there is no 'back' button for correcting mistakes (e.g. wrong moves, etc.) maybe i missed it, but the icon is usually there for most Vassal modules as a generic 'roll back' arrow. This could still be useful or at least easier to see, no need to change the generic look imo.
It's there in the normal place; in fact, it is not possible to remove the first 3 buttons from the toolbar. The button image has changed, but only to make it consistent with C&C Ancients/Medieval. Also, UnDo has shortcut Ctrl+Z in CCN.
3. Perhaps automation of the square up process could be considered. it's a bit tedious to square up with multiple squares and then square them back down when coming back out. would also be nice if the cards that are on the square displays could have a right click option 'return to hand,' automating that functionality as well. Not sure how easy or difficult this is. problem with automating vassal stuff is that it seems the more that is automated, the slower it gets/more stuff goes wrong. I plan to do this; proposal below.
4 as you mentioned not fiddling with this yet in the card hands, but 1.5x magnification would be useful there too.
cheers and thanks a lot! Marc Actually, I did fix this in a17 but there is a Vassal issue that means all cards in a row zoom up not just the one you point at (why I disabled it in the first place). I made it a user preference (Off by default). Over-night, one of the Vassal devs picked up on my problem report and it looks like the issue will be fixed in Vassal 3.5.6, in which case I will make mouseover in hand the default again.
