Comment Post #276166 @ArtOfCode - yes (cool) I can embed an image now. I have done so in the above answer - that image shows that I don't see the preview pane on the EE site (just taken new screenshot to check).

Comment Post #276154 If you can't find a data sheet then it's likely because there isn't one. Hence don't use the part. You find reputable sources based on searching around and looking for good electronic parts suppliers like Farnell, RS, Digikey, Mouser (for instance). And, importantly, if you target a part that you mig...

Comment Post #276166 @ArtOfCode - no nothing happening when I hit the image button. No different to earlier. Strange that it worked once on my EE Q and A but not again.

Comment Post #276166 Aha a downvote for pointing stuff out. Sounds very similar to stack exchange in this respect. Guys, I'm trying to help. Any news on when I will be able to post pictures @ArtOfCode?

Comment Post #276154 @manassehkatz I rejected your modification because clearly we don't agree. If I can't use the PDF logo in the answer for legal reasons then that's fine - I shall remove it and find another way of expressing it. But, seriously, there are a vast number of budding engineers and hobbyists out there who h...

Comment Post #276157 OK I've done that but, I can't post an image (although I've saved one) because the image insert button doesn't work ([there's a hole in my bucket dear Liza](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There%27s_a_Hole_in_My_Bucket)).

Comment Post #276166 What I'm saying is that nobody has a right of entitlement to saying what a bug is. My opinion (any new user) on this site and how it seems to me SHOULD BE OF INTEREST and if it doesn't appear to be that, then that needs to be re-thought.

Comment Post #276166 I'm a guy that comes along (as a brand new user) and I find things that seem odd. It needn't be me; it can be anyone. So, even the most basic thing like me incompetently pressing the wrong button and saying it's a bug has validity because, I am in that unique position of being a brand new user. To me...

Comment Post #276166 .... Olin asked me along here to throw in my little bit and that's what I'm doing. Of course I may be wrong about this or that and need a slight poke in the eye as a reminder to work at things a bit more but, there are things I say that still look like bugs.

Comment Post #276166 @ArtOfCode No, I don't want to post it as a question on meta. Olin says these are system-wide issues and YOU say it is not a bug, a misunderstanding or same as SE. There is a huge difference between what you say and what Olin says so you guys need to get your cylindrical brown lumps together because ...

Comment Post #276157 Yes, yes, yes we've already done the java vs JS thing once. I have JS enabled on my chrome browser. Version installed: Version 83.0.4103.97 (Official Build) (64-bit). The double underscore has been resolved as "user incompetence".

Comment Post #276157 Javascript was not blocked in google chrome - I checked. I also specifically enabled it for this site but no luck and I still can't see the preview pane. Maybe it's a chrome thing that you haven't got right yet?

Comment Post #276154 Have you ever noticed that when going to a component website that the data sheet link is usually a PDF icon. Hence why I deposited the PDF icon in the answer so, I presume that when you say "PDF icon means nothing here" you must mean something else. And no, I disagree that "anything" (presumably you ...

Comment Post #276157 I've just tried editing the question above but the double underscore for bullet points doesn't appear to work also and also, I tried to embed a screen shot from my EE question (in order to show the lack of preview pane) and now the image embed button doesn't work. How do I enable java for this site?

Comment Post #276157 I have Java enabled (who doesn't these days!). You say there is a live preview feature "available" - does that mean I need to find it because it's not present if i go back to my question/answer and trial edit it.
