this is easy now. click the circular arrow by the HH;s in upper right and you will get a quick visual. i hit that arrow many many times and it does not open a new window each time, so it is manageable.
and when he says 'upper right' granny naturally means 'upper left'
I am glad they finally have a hand replayer, I will have to check it out more. But, from what I have seen of it, it would be much better if it placed you in your preferred seat, so the players match the table as you are looking at it.
The Darth Vader Lobby? Not so much. I tried it a few times when it was beta and it's too dark and heavy for me. Also kind of hard to read. I can see how the yellow and green doesn't really flow with the PStars branding, but maybe something more neutral like the colors used on the PStars web pages or even tone the black down to a very dark charcoal gray?
Once they take the lobby themes out of beta, and put out some documentation on it, you will be seeing custom lobby themes from people like me. Currently it appears they encrypted the INI files, so it isn't yet possible to create/add my own custom lobby theme to the menu yet. It might be possible to mod the default or black lobby, but you would have to install the modified files every time that stars updates (aka every launch).
Stars if you add a feature to the playing screen put an option to hide the feature. The hand replayer red button is sooooooooooo annoying and tilts the hell out of me !!!
I would like to see 6max NLHE games with ante at all limits! (0.10/0.25 with 0.04-5 ante etc, though it would have to be at least 100bbs deep buyin else the shortstackers would go completely insane)
Or maybe a more neutral color for the hand replayer button?
Having played with it a little, I think the hand replayer definitely needs to put you in your preferred seat. Current is better than nothing, but it's easy to confuse other players having to rotate everyone in my head while trying to focus on the game I'm in as well.

You can simply delete the image file link.bmp and link.a.bmp in C:\Program Files\PokerStars\Gx\replay folder. Make a shortcut to that folder so you can delete the files after you launch stars but before you open any tables. In another thread in the software forum I realized you dont even have to replace the image witha transparent image file. Deleting it seems to work, if you dont want to see it or use it. Unfortunately you will have to do it at least once a day, when you launch stars.
I find the sitting out/sitting back in setup to be extremely annoying at times. I 24-table full ring cash games. I use the "Stars Planner" AHK because it has a "sit out on all tables" option. There is one hitch, though: if I don't go through all my tables and manually uncheck the "auto-post blinds" option on the normal speed tables before I uncheck the "sit out on all tables" option to return to my games, it automatically makes me post blinds from any position. Pretty annoying. What I've been doing lately is killing the PokerStars process in Windows Task Manager (doesn't make me leave my tables this way) and then relaunching PokerStars, which unchecks the "auto-post blinds" check box on all my tables, and is a little faster than me going through and doing them all manually. If something could be done about this though, that'd be great. It's quite annoying when I forget to uncheck them before I return from sitting out and end up losing money from posting with rag hands.
There are also some improvements to how the client works in Windows Vista.
Any details you can provide?
Either I'm going crazy or it seems to be going super fast now. Like opening a table from the lobby doesn't takes less than an instant to appear with all the players in their seats, etc.
Please tell me this isn't my imagination because I really notice a difference.
