This is a bug I'd hoped would be fixed in the new store

The old store was clunky, yes. But I just took that as just old designe that would be fixed. I'd hoped the new store would fix it. I didn't.

What's wrong in this picture? The scroll. The horizontal scroll. As a web designer, it's annoying to see that sort of thing when just about any professional UI designed for PC, website or not, avoids horizontal scroll. Vertical is fine. Common PC hardware is designed for vertical scroll. Horizontal is where things get tricky as you either need to middle click or actively click the horizontal scrollbar. ADD TO THAT, that the strange way the client window resizes (you can't resize width independently of height) means even when the client is at max height, top of the desktop to bottom... there is still a horizontal scrollbar.

What this leads to is a very, very clunky store experience on all fronts and makes the store feel... slower. Less enjoyable for the customer.

You guys have ALL OF THE MONEY. You can fix this, I know you can. Amumu Hopefully you guys learned responsive web design. Using percentages and such.

Specifics: My resolution is 1366x768. This is the world's most popular resolution thanks to tons of laptops shipping with that resolution, so I want to cleave the "just get a higher rez" argument right now.

Store still doesn't scale with client window.

Absurdly small on 4K monitors.

Scaling with 4k might require they have it scale to a certain extent before cutting of the scaling, just having massive borders on the side. The reason? Image scaling. Suddenly, you'd have icons being stretched beyond their typical rez, meaning you'd see some enlargement artifacts. Images would be the one thing that you can't control that much unless you used vector graphics which would greatly lower the quality of the images. Hopefully every champ splash art is big enough to be stretched to a reasonable degree.

Either that, or have variable number of columns dependent on client width e.g. Minimum-size client removing columns and simply adding more rows.

This is child's play web design.

There's still a chance that they could fix this when the client update drops.

Maybe you should have applied for the beta in order give them your opinions haha :D

the client is the problem, so thats when i always assumed stuff like this and that bs where a failed que resets store/masteries/runes while you are desperately trying to make changes on the fly would b fixd

Another note is that by default, this lack of scaling means that the "account button" is actually hidden from view.
