   And I don't think the font size is too small either (like someone mentioned) - it's the same as the font for the resource overview which we've never had problems with.

As it is, it's neat, concise and most importantly makes switching between cities fast. Agree that listing pop alongside the city name would be good though - at least it's what everyone is used to.

	The new drop down makes playing on an iPad much easier, too!

	"Name (pop[, Capital]) x\|y" would be ideal for most. With that, the non-enhanced version would be far preferable anyway. Edited by HonoredMule - 09 Apr 2012 at 14:13

	Loads better than the previous drop down box. No more scrolling through the pictures to locate a city. Please please keep it this way.

	Could you please include the population on it? Plus the writing is very small (I know people can adjust resolution) for anyone with vision problems. Could you set the default type face a couple of sizes larger please? Other than that, it's fine. I had no issues in my previous interface, but if this is the one we have to have, bigger and a pop number pls :)

	Yeah, no scrolling anymore . I don't know if that's possible, but three lines of text containing all the Info, then a gap, then next town... would offer FAR more overview than those pictures... Don't get me wrong, those pictures are awsome, but please leave them out of the scrollbar

	Yeh I thought it was just me having issues. In the last couple weeks the display started jumping all over the place made it real hard to actually select the town I wanted.
