I wonder if there is a way to change the default position of the Kennboard and pass the IC ?

[Alphapex1]

I have two monitors and the Kneeboard is displayed on the second monitor by default，

 I know we can move it by clicking on the top of the kneeboard,

But I still want to change its default positon so that it appears on the first monitor.

You can tweak it's location in the lua, but pretty sure that breaks IC.  That's the only "permanent" solution I know of.

In file ViewportHandling.lua at location      Your drive:\DCS World\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit

You can modify x, y, coordinates, width and height (in pixel) of the kneeboard window in this text below:

dedicated_viewport           = {default_x,default_y,default_width,default_height}

 

not break IC.

Would be really nice to finally be able to permanently reposition kneeboards/AI crew settings/control indicators in a video game in the year of our Lord 2024.

I find it ridiculous that we can't just position them anywhere we'd like by just dragging them. I just use VoiceAttack to move the Kneeboard, but the position is not saved.

Goes for exported displays too.

Open Kneeboard does help with this, even in 2D - but it won't display the dynamically generated pages - like the JF-17 stored heading page, the radio preset page, the pages that display the set laser codes, etc. 

 

Pretty ridiculous this isn't just a setting, or at the very least doesn't trigger IC checks.

Hello, Developers,

Any chance to exclude this file from IC?
For multimonitor users the requirement to change manualy the position of kneeboard is pretty problematic, and such change would be very appreciated.

You're probably best to start a new post in the wishlist section in order for your request to be seen.

All my tries to change location of the kneeboard to one most friendly for me, finally have broken the integrity check control of the game. Not once i have succeeded. Please cheat us our ideas and solutions. Thansk a lot.
