Title: Subsection Window opens a bit outside my schreen
Post by: Malamojka on December 23, 2021, 02:41:05 PM
Hi guys, first of all, thanks for all the good work.
I was trying out the subactivities menu in data tab (main window -> data - > subactivities). It opens up a new window, but it's a bit out of my schreen, so I can't move it or close it (except with alt+F4). A printscreen should be attached. I use 3 monitors, so I'm guessing that's a problem here...
Best wishes,
Mojca

Hello, Mojca,

Thank you for the bug report!

Unfortunately, I don't know exactly the situation here. I never had 2 or more monitors and cannot test.

The initial position of the window should be centered on the main form. How did this position arise?

You could try these tricks:

1) Reset settings to default;

or

2) Search in the registry (regedit.exe) fet/fettimetabling/SubactivitiesForm, and remove [geometry] (so you won't lose all the other FET settings). fet/fettimetabling/FetMainForm [geometry] is for the main form.

If you would give me more details, I could try to investigate.

Well, I have no idea how it came to it, it was the first time I ever opened the subactivities menu, I always did my timetables without it and just tried to explore subactivities. So I literally just opened my .fet file and opened subactivities menu. What other info do you need?

OK, I see.

Please try resetting the window(s) geometry to see if the problem is solved.

How do I do that?
I also don't understand what to do here: "Search in the registry (regedit.exe) fet/fettimetabling/SubactivitiesForm, and remove [geometry] (so you won't lose all the other FET settings). fet/fettimetabling/FetMainForm [geometry] is for the main form." Is that a thing on my computer? And if so, where can I find it (pic of my maps should be attached)

In FET menu, Settings, Restore default settings. This will make FET restore all the default settings.

Or you can only reset the geometry of the specified windows if you modify the registry. This is an advanced Windows settings, if you run the system program regedit.exe.
