No 'OK' button on 'Set Orders' dialog

Post by LaMachine »

When I try to set a course for my ships, the Set Orders dialog comes up, but there's no 'OK' button for me to press! It looks like I'm not seeing the whole dialog box.

I'm running on Dell Inspiron 8500 with Pentium 4, ATI chipset, Windows XP.

I've tried changing all my display resolution settings, and the same thing happens.

Same problem, although hopefully I can pin it down a bit. The game ran fine in 1280x1024 on the monitor I was using until last Saturday, an LG Flatron 915FT plus (CRT). Game is currently unplayable using the monitor I bought on Saturday, an LG Flatron L225WS (LCD Widescreen); like yourself the problem is the same in all resolutions.

Not happy.

Can you post up a screenshot? 
 http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=228 will wipe out your window positions and settings, hopefully getting your button back.

EDIT.. yes, thanks Tony - that fixes it. This is a 'before', not an 'after' !

Thanks Hertston, now I see what is going one, Large Fonts is messing up the window sizes (or more appropriately, HC doesn't know how to handle non-standard font sizes/DPI settings).  The screenshot is much appreciated.
