Is anyone having trouble with the new Yahoo email layout?

I switched to the new look about a month ago. It was okay at first, but the last 3 weeks, the top of the inbox screen is not visible. They have a frame that covers the top of the folder column, hides the options buttons (like sort, move, delete) I have always sorted my mail by sender, and then mass deleted the junk. I save things I want to folders by clicking all of the relevant email and moving it. I can't do any of that now. If I want to delete things, I have to pick through the inbox and check the boxes. I can right click on one of the marked emails and get the menu with the delete option, but it is clunky. I tried to move email, too, and whether one of several, I see a popup that says it's moved, but it is still in the inbox. I have sent feedback several times, and nothing changes.

I don't think it's my settings on my computer. I can see the toolbars all around the windows I have open. I've had the Yahoo account since the late 1990s, and since Optimum screwed up their email, the Yahoo account has become the one I use the most.

Did you increase font size? Sometimes it makes it load unevenly. flying_wahini Apr 7 #1

Fixed! I reduced the size of the screen from 100% to 80% Marthe48 Apr 7 #5
I have none of your problems but I hate it anyway. I liked the previous version so much better. SheilaAnn Apr 7 #2

I open the account and use the default.

I'm using a laptop to access the account. Maybe the new layout is friendlier on phones. I'll play around with font and screen size and see if it makes any difference. Thank you!

I didn't think it would do any good, so I didn't try it before
