Hi, just bought a new 32" monitor and all the messages are in the corner of the screen, wich is pretty annoying using a bigger screen, I have searched on the forum but I cant found a solution, I have managed to move the radio menu (as stated here: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/293970-comms-menu-move-location-on-screen-semi-solved, wich also moves the mission messages when you open it, but not when its closed, see image:

I want to move them lower and to the left, and the radio messages lower and to the right, as this:

Appreciate any help on this.

I have found a solution thanks to this post: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/134049-3-monitor-setup-moving-all-radio-texts-to-center-screen/?do=findComment&comment=2725156

For anyone interested with the resolution of my main monitor being 2560x1440, you have to modify this file C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Scripts\UI\gameMessages.lua on line 117:

main_w, main_h = Gui.GetWindowSize()
main_w = 2000 (add this line, I think its the total width where the messages will be displayed)
window:setBounds(300, 400, main_w, main_h) (300 will be the left spacing, and 400 the upper spacing)

I dont know how to code so maybe its wrong, but its working.
Seems to pass IC with no problems as the other one.
