'Edit Entry' window starts at coöirdinates last closed of a second screen that isn't connected

Published 10 years ago

I dock my laptop in a configuration with 2 monitors.
If I then use RDM on my second monitor and edit some entries, the coördinates of the 'Edit Entry' window are saved at this moment.

If I later use my laptop undocked and with only 1 monitor, I can't edit anything as the 'Edit Entry' window opens on with the coördinates of the second screen that isn't connected anymore.
The main RDM window is then locked as it waits for the edit window to be closed. I need to use task manager to shutdown RDM.
I'm using RDM V11.6.0.0

Hello,

When you edit a session and that the edit window is on your second monitor, could you try to hold the Windows key + right arrow or Windows key + left arrow to try to move the edit window on your primary monitor.

Best regards,

Yes, that works.
But shouldn't the software detect the current coordinates aren't valid and establish new coordinates from the location of the parent window?

Hi,
We use the Windows API to set the dialog location and indeed it should be automatically done. Unfortunately we don't have the control over it. I will verify if we missed something.
