Title: Graphics bug on clipboard?
Post by: lyric1 on August 06, 2010, 03:25:17 AM
When you pull up the game sounds adjustment screen the advaced button is overlapping the text below it.

Related to the clipboard but not this specific problem. I've noticed when you bring up the clipboard and for example, open the E6B; you then open the roster the clipboard changes size and position. It seems to do this quite frequently when bringing up or closing various menus or other things available through the clipboard.
Any other notice this and is it normal or not?

It does the resizing on my system as well.   I'm assuming normal behavior, although I'd prefer if it stayed sized the way I had it, it's not too big of a deal.  When I close the E6B, it goes back to the size I had selected before.

when you bring up the clipboard and for example, open the E6B; you then open the roster the clipboard changes size and position.

its almost impossible to set them all up the same ingame, but you can do it fairly easily using the settings files. the clipboard position/size is saved by the game for a bunch of different situations, saved in plaintext files called clipxxxx.cfg in the settings folder:

clip.cfg
clipo.cfg
clipCLUB.cfg
clipFLIGHT.cfg
clipFLIGHTo.cfg
clipHANGAR.cfg
clipHANGARo.cfg
clipTOWER.cfg
clipTOWERo.cfg


(the "o" files are for when the E6B or whatever sheet is open)

I have it quite small in flight and almost full size in the tower, so first I set up the 2 sizes ingame how I like it in flight and in the tower. I then copied the contents of clipFLIGHT.cfg to clipFLIGHTo.cfg, and the contents of clipHANGAR.cfg to all the other files. now they are all the same size/position :aok
