      I just updated to 15650 and it's there:

      Don't always trust TripleA when it comes to rules questions. Know the rules before you start … and better check what TripleA has done.

        I suggest having the "Undo All" button in the same place as the "Cancel" button, meaning that there is no "Undo All" button when the "Cancel" button is usable, whereas there is the "Undo All" button instead of the "Cancel" button when the latter is unusable (like in the screenshot which I quoted).

            Unselects all selected units (same as the "Escape" key). (When you click on "Undo All", you also unselect them all as if you clicked on "Cancel" too.)

            Obviously, the "Cancel" button would be better named as "Unselect All" or just "Unselect".

            I almost never use it as well. You can do the same with the "Escape" key or by right-clicking with the mouse until you have no more units selected (which can be speeded up by right-clicking on a type of units to unselect all units of that type). I guess it exists as a matter of principle for supporting mouse-only gaming or for people who refuse to take 1 minute to read the “Movement/Selection Help”.

                @malmessi @panther @cernel i’m not sure if this is an issue with the default frame size but i always have to resize my sidebar to get that to appear i only need to resize it a little bit tho seems like there is some fine tuning we are lacking in the default settings (at least for the mac os x skin).

                      @Cernel realizing that i doubt anyone uses the cancel button. ostensibly you’d do that by dragging the movement arrow outside the map to the cancel button i don’t think i have ever done this.

                        @lafayette motion to either remove the cancel button or at least move it to the third position so that it is the one that gets hidden when the sidebar width is too small.

                        i think we actually don’t need as everyone intuitively knows to use either the escape key or just click in any invalid destination to cancel a move.

                        no rush or anything i know you on a journey atm
