New GUI, small probs

*JD_Basher* Gearjammers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Storytellers Posts: 2,728 Joined: Feb 11, 2007 When in the game, the turn timer is partially hidden by the white (active program) bar at the top of the screen. Is there a simple fix I can do to remove the bar myself so no DW fix is needed? ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Sep 1, 2008, 2:36 am

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 does the timer need to move left a bit? I was going to do this anyway, since it can currently overlap the edge of the window in some versions of Windows too ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Sep 3, 2008, 10:46 am

*JD_Basher* Gearjammers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Storytellers Posts: 2,728 Joined: Feb 11, 2007 Yes ..... Left and down about 1/4 inch both ways. ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Sep 3, 2008, 1:23 pm

Not sure how long 5 pixels is..... how about this long (.....) That far left and down should be enough to see the timer clock. ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Sep 3, 2008, 7:35 pm

*JD_Basher* Gearjammers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Storytellers Posts: 2,728 Joined: Feb 11, 2007 OK I had my screen set to 1074X768..... This more or less put the game to fullscreen for me hiding some of the clock.... I reverted to 800X600 and can see everything again. I'll take a screenshot at the higher resolution so you can see. ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Sep 3, 2008, 8:11 pm

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 No need JD, I'm moving it already by 5 pixels in the next patch; that should sort it out Quote: how about this long (.....) Lol.. here's a way of visualising what I mean.. take a look at that row of dots on an iphone. Now look at it again on a big humongous 24 inch monitor. Does it look different?  ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Sep 3, 2008, 8:16 pm

*JD_Basher* Gearjammers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Storytellers Posts: 2,728 Joined: Feb 11, 2007 Too poor for an iPhone...... I registered with imageshack and hope I did this right.. Timer cut off ============== edit: Just checked the image and it worked for me.. Plainly shows the timer cut at 1024X768 with the "program active" bar as the culprit. ALSO notice the "Handbrake" and "Follow cam" words cut off. ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Sep 3, 2008, 8:52 pm Last edited Sep 3, 2008, 8:57 pm by JD_Basher

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 Ur.. I thought you were referring to the 'turns elapsed' text, not the actual turn timer. You have presumably always had this issue though? It looks like the Mac in windowed mode sets the top as being actually underneath the title bar.. weird. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Sep 3, 2008, 8:55 pm

*JD_Basher* Gearjammers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Storytellers Posts: 2,728 Joined: Feb 11, 2007 at the higher resolution, it shows as 'full-screen' on my monitor without actually setting the game to full screen, which crashes me continually. When I set to 800X600, the lobby and the client are both shown as a 'window' on my desktop. You want a screenie of that? =============== edit: Here's 1 pics at 800X600 set with the game options from the lobby. in-game Shows the game 'windowed' as it should be... ......................... vet marshal wv cont Posted Sep 3, 2008, 9:00 pm Last edited Sep 3, 2008, 9:29 pm by JD_Basher

It's an open question what to do about it... it's not like there's some magical way to fit a big window onto a small screen. -KD ......................... vet Posted Sep 8, 2008, 8:08 pm
