[Logged] Message boxes position issues

Post by Aarnoman »

CMO version: v1.01 Build 1121.6
Tacview version 1.8.2
Scenario: Occurs in any scenario and on main menu.

Setup: 2 screens as follows:

Issue: Pop-up window positions are not saved when starting a new scenario, and reset to the bottom left corner of the primary display as shown in the screenshot. This occurs for all pop-up windows (i.e. special messages).

Moving the box and restarting the scenario causes all of these message boxes to reappear on the bottom left position as seen on the screenshot.

The same occurs after restarting CMO, where none of the window positions are remembered.

If the second screen is unplugged, all pop-up windows appear on the center of the screen (intended behaviour).

I am unable to post pictures due to the forum anti spam filter currently. I have uploaded them on discord under the general_chat, as the bug_report section was also closed down.

Please don't put comments in square brackets in the post title, it just slows down our reporting process -- I know it's well intentioned though [:)]

Additional information: This problem is likely the result of screen positions not being saved (even with single screen setups). I've posted a seperate bug report to it (cannot link relevant thread yet as I do not have sufficient forum priviledges)
