Inconsistent code background

Here:

 

In the ‘Best Answer’ shown at the top of the thread (immediately after the OP), it’s on a black background:

 

 

But, in its original position within the thread view, it’s on a grey background:

 

Note also that the line spacing is different - so the “ASCII Art” no longer works properly

@mƎALLEm ​@unsigned_char_array - at least it manages to find a thread with “Background” in the title!

 

Try this:

https://community.st.com/stm32cubemx%2Dmcus%2D29/how%2Dto%2Dorganize%2Dthe%2Dfolder%2Dstructure%2Din%2Dcubemx%2Dgenerated%2Dcode%2D162030

 

Again, I have just taken the ?postid=162030#post162030 off the end of the URL.

So it seems to be something to do with getting that suffix part of the URL wrong.

 

Somebody else somewhere earlier today mentioned that maybe the new forum isn’t coping well in cases when the thread title got changed on the old forum - which didn’t necessarily always get updated everywhere...

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.

Hello ​@Andrew Neil

Thanks for catching this! I have asked our vendor to adjust the style of code blocks. Will let you know once that’s done. 

P.s. URL redirect topics has been also raised and I will provide updates here: 'Copy Link' menu option gives wrong link. | Community

Regards,
Lina
