Jeepyb Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) Is it possible to edit Jester wheel's position ? Mine is spread out on my 2 monitors and not really usable :s It worst in real life since my monitor is down and has Thrusmaster MFDs on it.

If by any chance you could provide info on how to do it ourselves if/when you discover the fix, I for one would really appreciate that so as not have to wait until the next update.

Maverick87Shaka Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Thx guys, we'll try to patch this. As you might have guessed this is an issue for full screen multimonitor setups. What do you mean with full screen? It's not related to the "full screen" option. The jester wheel appear to occupy all the total screen area available instead the UIMainView,gui, or center area defined in DCS. It's a big issues at the moment! If you have any temporary solution please share the method even if will be break the IC probably.

You're correct, none of the developers use multiscreen like this so this was an oversight on our part. We're working on fixing it but it might need a hotfix from our side.

PabstBleuRibbon Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 ran into this in my brief pre-work flight, hopefully can edit some .lua to get the jester wheel in the right spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dino Might Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Ahhhh, now I know why I can't find my Jester menu, and there's sometimes a weird artifact line across my main screen - will see what's appearing on my (normally) A-10C MFCD monitors.

Wayan Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Hey, just wanted to let you know that we're testing a fix now. It will display Jester menu centered and within the limits of UIMainView.If this is in, does this mean it opens in the center of viewport? Because of you are in VR and looking to a side when opening jester, it is impossible to give orders, as the position of the line in the wheel is tracked by your head... I hope this is understandable... If you look at your 3 I'm clock, jester will open at your 12, now when you turn your head to your 12 the line for selecting the order points to your 9.... So made it would be nice if the jester menu opens in the view center, in VR and not at your 12... Greetings :) Send via SADL with Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonsky7 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 If you can't wait for the hotfix, may I reference a post from Clorydric, which did the trick! It seems Jester wheel position is handled by a lua (DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\F14\Cockpit\Scripts\JesterAI\JesterAI_Page.lua). Line 43 : grid_origin.init_pos = {0, 0, 0}I set it to grid_origin.init_pos = {-1.8, 0, 0} and it's much better. However it may depends on your screen config... I'm running a 2560*1080 on the left (main screen) and a 1920*1080 on the right (instruments). For my 3 screen setup (2560*1440)+(1920*1080)+(1920*1080) in that order. grid_origin.init_pos = {[b]-2.7[/b], 0, 0} to get it bang in the middle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALDEGA Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 After the latest patch (2019-03-22) the position and scale of the Jester wheel is incorrect at 3840x2160 when "Scale GUI" is enabled in the main options screen. When "Scale GUI" is disabled the position and scale are correct. (see attached screenshots) I didn't notice any problems with other resolutions (I tested 1920x1080 and 2560x1440). Those resolutions don't apply GUI scaling as far as I can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnv2pt0 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Same here. Because of my monitor setup only part of my second monitor is visible and they are oriented vertically. this means the bottom of the wheel is completely hidden and therefor the f-14 is unusable with this bug. Not everyone has a horizontal arrangement. Just fyi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StandingCow Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) Still seeing the Jester menu messed up with multi-monitor... will try deleting my modified file from when it was jacked up and do a repair. Hopefully that fixes it. Edit: didn't fix it... jester menu is still cut off from my main monitor. :( Here is my monitor file: _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('SubDisplay'); Description = 'Sub Displays' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 3440; height = 1440; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; } } LEFT_MFCD = { x = 0; y = 1440; width = 525; height = 525; } RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 2910; y = 1440; width = 525; height = 525; } UIMainView = Viewports.Center Edited June 8, 2019 by StandingCow 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
