Floating preview not working on 2nd screen

[MBaas]

I have 2 screens (1: 3840x2160, 225% 2: 2560x1440, 100%). XY usually opens on #2, but after moving it to #1, I noticed that FPV doesn't show on that monitor. Actually..digging deeper, it looks as if the FPV is opened below screen #1...as I am able to move the window up with keystrokes. Now that I found it, I can deal with it - but if there was a way to fix it, that would be very welcome certainly ;-)

Below?! What if you move it to the other screen far up at the top? Do you see it at the bottom then? (I want to find out how far below it is.)

[MBaas]

Yep, that's right - I'm not sure it was below - it was outside the visible area AND on the wrong screen. I did movre it to the other screen, hoping it would open there the next time, but it always re-appears in that invisible position and I can't get it to show on the other screen.

I'm not sure I understand. "Yep, that's right." answers which of my questions?

[MBaas]

Sorry, I wanted to confirm your doubts regarding "Below?" as I do not know where the window is positioned...

[admin]

What if you press F11 (to close it) and F11 again (to open it again)? Does it appear on the screen?

[MBaas]

F11: nothing
Win-Up: appears on other screen
F11: FPV closes
F11: goto 1...

In the next beta (v20.30.0010) try this script to retrieve the current position of the FP (while it is opened):

Code: Select all

fp;

[MBaas]

X=0, Y=0

[admin]

It should be visible then. No explanation handy ATM...

[MBaas]

Well - I finally had the idea instead of just closing FPV, to resize it and move it to the other screen before closing - then it was re-opened on that screen

[admin]

That solves it for you?

[MBaas]

yep, case closed
