How to stop question being obscured by answer box?
In the new format if I go to answer a question a window appears that then blocks the view of the question so you cannot check the details of the question while writing the answer. I've tried pasting the question into the answer box and then deleting but this is awkward to do. Any other ideas? Is there any way to write to the folks at Yahoo! to complain?

The user who suggested opening a separate window to answer the question, so you could refer back to the other window to review the question, made a useful suggestion. I've not yet seen the new format, so can't offer any additional suggestions that might be helpful.
You can also go to the YA Feedback forum and post a suggestion for that change, if no one has already done so. https://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/211240

First day of using it, am finding it very awkward. You could use a separate window, or re-check the question in your Browser history. Seems that you cannot paste directly into the answer space anymore, so you have to put web links in the "Source" space.

I find that crying is a good solution. You let out all your emotions, then you feel much better after.
