eatc7402 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 I hope this is the right place for this question (problem). I recently purchased a Thrustmaster T-1600, and I just downloaded and installed the TARGET interface software. the very first time I ran the TARGET software it runs (and continues to) run about 3/4 OFFSCREEN in the upper left corner of the screen. It's so far offscreen that I am nable to 'grab' the title bar to reposition it . The only way 'out' is to kill the process for it. I am running Win7 (64 bit) at 1366 x 768. I'm stuck. Any ideas? eatc7402
cichlidfan Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 One thing that might work... Can you right click the icon for Target on the taskbar? If you close Target with the right click menu, when you restart it opens up smaller than normal (not sure if it will be small enough) and then you might be able to resize/move it to a better spot. This is based on my experience with the Target Script Editor not the GUI. If you are talking about the GUI then YMMV. I run Target on a hires (2560x1440) monitor, so I am just guessing that this will help.

eatc7402 Posted May 27, 2013 Author Posted May 27, 2013 Nope, that did nothing. The window did not resize. I was hoping that there was maybe a command line option that could be added to the shortcut icon to 'center' the window on opening. eatc7402
Witchking Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 try changing resolutions and then drag it down.

eatc7402 Posted May 27, 2013 Author Posted May 27, 2013 No, changing resolution is not an option. I have over 60 desktop shortcuts and altering the resolition screws up the positions of them all. I'm investigating window position changing from the Commnd prompt. No results yet. etc7402
eatc7402 Posted May 27, 2013 Author Posted May 27, 2013 Well I found a 'way'. I downloaded a small program called "cmdow", which a command line options program usable in the command prompt in win7, or better yet from a batch file. So first running the 'badly positioned" TARGET GUI, and then the following batch file commands... cd C:\Program Files (x86)\cmdow CMDOW "T.A.R.G.E.T GUI" /MOV 0 0 That MOVES the window to the upper left corner (pos 0,0) which then alllows the title bar to be grabbed and resized. Crude, but it works. eatc7402
