Hey folks,

I hope you can help me out with a really annoying problem I have. I created my own view for the Tactics screen to see stuff like Condition, Match Fitness, various Stats and positions at one glance and decide my line-up from there. It is supposed to look like this:

However, as soon as I change anything, whether it's a substitution, adding a filter, changing the screen and returning to the tactics screen or click on "Auto Size All Columns", the last column disappears. I can repeat that until only the first column (in this case "Role/Position/Duty" ) is left and fills the screen. Here, I substituted Schweinsteiger with Thiago and the Average Rating disappears:

From what I have gathered so far it seems this occurs independently form the skin, or the font size or if the game's in windowed mode or not. For the screens I used the Standard skin at 95% font size, windowed mode at 1920x1080 resolution. I usually use the Scorpio Skin, but I also tried out the Andromeda-Skin without the sidebar. I already verfied the integrity of the game cache via Steam, but the problem remains.

I also use the Player Overview Panel mod. Could that be the thing that causes the problem, or is it from the FM itself? I'm getting kind of desperate because while this seems like a minor inconvenience, it really lowers my enjoyment of the game.

I hope somebody can help me out here.

Cheers
Lupus

Its the Auto Size All Columns that is the main problem, your best resizing them all yourself especially the stats columns such as goals cards etc since they end up taking 2-3 times the space they need meaning the last column goes off screen.

Or in my case it was the problem bt mine is all sorted now as long as i never use auto size and just individual

I tried that, but I find the resizing of columns to be incredibly clumsy. Should I try to put one of the columns that need more space at the end? For example, the "Last 5 Games"? Also, when I tried to resize the last column, it disappeared again.

Also, how do you explain that the column disappears when I substitute a player as in the screenshot provided? Confuses me a lot.

Thanks for your answer.

EDIT: I found an answer on the SI forums, but it's not very encouraging.

Hey - the issue has been looked at, but it was deemed too fragile an area of the game to attempt a fix for this patch. It required too much consideration for there to be a 'quick fix', as it essentially needs an overhaul. It will be reviewed very early for the next version. I know that doesn't alleviate how frustrating it is in this game, and for that we can only apologise.

I find that very annoying that they can't get essential interfaces to work. Alas, I have to figure out a way to work around that somehow now.

I doubt it will be fixed for 15 maybe FM16 if they build from FM15's setup
