Actually that tip isn't working for me on my iPad.

If you click where you see "Comment" at the top of the thread, you will jump down to the last post. Hope that helps!

It would be so great if this was feature also applicable to the phone app! I've found no way to do that on the app.

All I have to do is wait for the entire thread to "load" (if there are embedded pictures and the thread is long this can take decent amount of time!) and then hit "end". No need for the "control/Alt." combination in conjunction... It took me a fair piece of time to pick that one up, too... ! ;)

Lynn, My machine doesn't have a "FIX" feature. Before I figured the feed dogs down trick...I set my stitch length to "0" & stitched a few stitches & then switched it back to 2.5. Well, you can imagine the pain that was since I have a comp. machine & the stitch button only moves .5 each click. 5 clicks down - stitch - 5 clicks up... Grrr... Then it hit me that I could drop my feed dogs with a click & put them back up with a click. Easier than the previous technique & cheaper than buying a new machine. :) I'll have to try & remember to bring the bottom thread up when I start & reinforce that way. I did try that today, & my bobbin thread is a darker color & ended up showing on the top. I might stop doing that if that continues.

I used to do that, but it was such a pain to push the button 5x down each time I wanted to stitch in place & then push the button 5x up to stitch at 2.5. It got annoying & when I was starting & stopping a lot. Can be a pain. I found that the feed dog change was easier since I have a handy switch. Didn't have to move my hand around until I was ready to sew. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Well, I think someone :) is listening! I opened my android phone tonight. There was a new notification, and I tapped it. The Houzz app loaded the thread, as usual, and MAGIC!!! My long thread loaded and instead of me having to scroll scroll scroll to see the latest comment, the thread sped down to the last comment made-- all by itself !

LIFE CHANGER!! Thank you, Emily and all the fine people in the IT dept.! You're my time and finger saving heroes of 2016!!

Spindle22, are you using a device (Ipad or a phone which get to Houzz discussions through the Houzz app) or are you using a full computer with a web browser? You didn't say. Pardon me if you have tried these tricks...I don't know how computer savvy you are.

On my Ipad, with the Houzz app, you can tap where the thread's comment number is (after the thread is introduced, there is a statement saying how many comments there are on it), and that will also take you to the bottom of the thread. Then you can scroll back up thru...

On the web browser on your computer, you can go to Houzz, find a discussion thread, and scroll to the bottom as usual with the track pad or mouse. Or, in the case of the very long threads, a great shortcut is to use the keyboard controls. Make sure your cursor is hovering in the body of the thread's text. Then, you can hit the "Command (Mac) or Control (PC) + the down arrow key." That will take you to the bottom of the thread right away. Then you can scroll up to see where you left off...

On my phone app, previous to this evening, there was no way to do either of those tricks. But now it is loading the thread page all the way, and then taking me to the ending comment automatically. OMG HOW WONDERFUL THAT IS! :)

Thanks rredpenn. I am using app on iPad. It only jumps as far as the first comment. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

On the iPad app do a double click next to the dilemma title. That will take you to the last comment then scroll up.
