Post subject:  Changing Resolutions Bug

Hi SS2...

The problem is the following :

First time ive played this game on 1920x1080 px resolution 32 - Bit so far anything is DOPE !

But !

After i change my resolution to lower for example 1280x1024 32-bit i cant see the windows and it appears that all windows including MAP - Social(F9) - Inventory - Radar - etc.. its off screen and i cant do anything to bring them back but onyl solution to cahnge my resolution back to 1920x1080 px
and move all windows in the top left corner ....

The solution for this little thing that is pretty annoying for unexperienced PC users that dosnt know how the resolution works (that goes from the top left to the bottom right as we incrase it ) is that every time the user starts the game all windows should reset theyr position to the middle of the screen , so no matter how i arranged the windows in higher resolutions after i switch the resolution to a lower one the menus will alway appear in the center of screen.

I hope you understand my problem and i do believe that there are coders that can make this work

Iam glad i can help hope you understand my bad english :)

Byebye

Delete your Star Sonata 2/config/dialogs.xml to fix this...

Maybe something can be done when you change resolution though, moving stuff around after EVERY restart will get very annoying.

We do also set default locations in the window XML which is what is used unless a value is specified in dialogs.xml.

Well yeah thats true its gonna be annoying to arrange the stuff all time ...but what if you set the restart only when the resolution changes.... so it wont restart at every startup of the game :)....

Lemme know what you think !

New UI options in the new client that forces stuff to stay within the view, and it'll move stuff into the view if it's outside of the view on load.

So we're all good here. :)

That'll be live next patch.
