Title: Where do you put your clipboard map?
Post by: bbosen on April 12, 2003, 03:44:05 PM

I'm always pushing the clipboard map around the display and re-sizing it, trying to keep it out of the way. In combat I close it down completely. Other times I usually keep it shrunk down to postage-stamp size and near the upper right-hand corner of the display, pushed as far up into the corner as I can (even obscuring the edges).

I REALLY wish I knew some way to have the clipboard map return to the place where I last had it after I stow it and then retrieve it.

Or is there some way to edit a configuration file to set the default location and size of the clipboard?

How do y'all handle this?

my clip board always stays in the lower left hand corner. it is about 1/8 total screen size. if i move it and hit esc to close it it comes back to where ever i had it when i reopen it. seems to stay where ever you put it. hope this helps. ps- try not to make it so small because i think that can keep it from staying where you want it.

The clipboard map will reset to it's default position if you had it placed where it's edges are touching the edge of the screen.
If it's not touching the edge, then it will come back up in the position you had it in, at least until you close AH.

I don't move it around myself. I have a button on my stick that brings up the clipboard, and I use this ALOT when cruising around. When in fights I never open it up.
