Grid Configuration Missing

Post by kd4rau »

When using the Recent QSO tab, and you right-click on the grid column title. You get a menu. If you select the Edit Table Layout. The system opens a window. That is not seen. I can see that the window is open by moving the mouse over the taskbar LOG4OM item and it shows the 2 windows. By closing the Grid Configuration window from the taskbar I can get back to the main screen.

I have tried uninstalling and rebooting with a new install, but that has not fixed it.

Has anyone else had this problem

I am running Windows 10 home

Bill,

By you noting you have done 'new installation' I'm assuming that it is: v2.18.0.0 ??

Have you tried to also open the "Edit Table Layout" from the Cluster (F8) tab? Each of those table layouts are individually adjustable from many different tables in Log4OM2.

When you open the Edit Table Layout and it does not directly display, but you noted you can see that it is open when you hover your mouse over the taskbar icon. What happens when you then click on that Edit Table Layout image when hovering over the taskbar icon?

Simple answers here.

Yes to 2.18

I don't have a table in the cluster. Maybe I don't have something set up to get the cluster-info. But there is no table to click.

If you click the Grid Config window on the taskbar. Nothing happens. It just stays there. You cannot click the main window, without an error beep.

I got this fixed. Yes it took hours to figure it out.

So I at one time had 2 monitors on this computer. I stopped using the second monitor as it went bad. So it was completely disconnected from the computer.

It appears that the pop up was remembering that it at one time was on the other monitor and only would show up there. I connected a different monitor as the second monitor and bang.. It was working again.

I would suggest that if the reset button is pressed in the config menu, then all of the cached window locations be cleared.

What a pain, but it is now fixed.

Thanks for your help.
