Important: position of 'clip it' - 37 views

clipit

right now the 'clip it' is shown in the upper right corner of a flash video.
that's the same location the 'block'-button from the firefox-addon adblock. therefore clipit is useless for me and every other user of adblock and adblockplus right now as we are unable to click on it.
please change the location to the upper left corner or somewhere else.
thanks! :)

(stuff like that happens all the time, why does no one test a new feature of its addon with a firefoxinstallation with the top5 addons having installed? adblock is in the top5)

Thanks for reporting. Will test here to see if modification is needed.

Meanwhile, make sure you upgrade to the latest toolbar. Then only hit "clip" when you need it. Turn it off when you don't need it.

It's near impossible to make sure we don't conflict with all extensions, but you do have a good point here. Will discuss with our team to incorporate into out normal testing procedure.

Slightly off topic: by the way, wonder if anyone knows what's the criteria for being selected as FF's recommended top extensions? Think Diigo extension is pretty good (and very useful) compared with most of them out there - should Diigo deserve a top recommended spot there as well ? :-)

FF extension just rolled out a completely new comment design. If you like Diigo's toolbar, please kindly take a little time to write a short recommendation comment https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2792 - Thanks.

Upon further checking, we tried Adblock and seems ok.

Please make sure that you've upgraded to the latest FF toolbar.

Dear Maggie, dear Marcel:

thank you for your hints. The use of the Clip is not selfdescribing, especially if there is some conflict with other software.
It would be very helpful, if the normal working of a new feature is "described" by a video on YouTube.

I added a universally usable tag

AskDiigo

where questions to the Diigo community can be aggregated in annotations. Via the same tag: answers can be given, preferably with embedded videos, placed in YouTube.

okay, short because I don't have much time: I actually use adblockplus, sorry. don't know about the differences. anyway, it's currently number two on the top addons list on the mozilla-site so you really should get that working together with diigo. No one demands to have diigo working flawless with every addon. just the second most downloaded one :)

afaik i have the latest versions of everything:
diigo: 1.0.2.007051201
adblock plus 0.7.5.1
on Firefox 2.0.0.3, XP SP2

And I'm serious. I can't clip videos right now.

Marcel,

I'm going to send you another new toolbar to try it out. It offsets the position by 20x. let's see if that makes a difference.

Meanwhile,

1) you can always turn off the "Clip" mode when you don't need it.
2) Even if it slightly overlaps, when you mouse over the one you wish, its menu (either Diigo's Clip It) or Adblock will float to the top, and you can easily pick the one you wish.

how do I install the new toolbar? just copy it into firefox' addons-folder? and do I have to uninstall my current diigo-toolbar before?

secondly, it doesn't just slightly overlap. it's almost completey the same size and position. no way I could push the clip-button. Is it just on my computer?
