Start-up Screen

Postby flipside » Sun Jun 28, 2009 5:18 pm

Somehow the startup screen on my computer got moved too far down so that it is no longer in the center of my monitor. How do I restore it to the correct position in the center? It shows only about the top 2/3 of the screen. When I enter my log entry, the bottom menu is not visible.

This happens if you were working in downsized windowed mode, with the window off center and quit the sim without re-centering the window. For example, working alongside another app like Afcad.  

Start a flight and change to 'windowed mode' (alt+enter to toggle between windowed and full screen). In windowed mode, downsize the window. Grab the title bar and recenter the window.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

It is the very first image. The one that says "Flight Simulator 2004" and has a picture of a DC3.

I know. Doing what I described will recenter the start-up screen.
