[Retros] Improvement of the Retro Corner?

[Otto Janko]

Dear Pascal,

The intention of this feature was not to show the solution completely (which
is impossible if the solution is lengthy), but to show the diagram on the
top of the screen and as much of the solution as possible. 

The question is: Is this feature appreciated by the majority of the audience
or does the majority of the audience feel that this feature is disturbing?

Best Regards,
