Menu pop-up location - Any way to choose where the menu appears?

Post by lderoo »

Is there any way to specify where the menu panel pops up on the screen?

I have 4 monitors (1 on desk, and 3 x projectors that are grouped together with Nvidia mosaic). I would like all menus to appear on the 1st monitor display as opposed to in the middle of the grouped mosaic.

For example, when P3D opens, the splash screen comes up on monitor 1, but the Scenery Loader screen appears in the middle of the grouped display (i.e. the main P3D window).

When I hit ESC, I'd like the "End Scenario" dialog to appear on monitor 1.

Thank you for the comprehensive response.

I was hoping for a solution within P3D itself. Possibly a setting within the Prepar3D.cfg file that I have not discovered yet.

Ideroo, I get the feeling that this "yvonnesomething" is a spammer.

I've tried many times via multiple methods to do the same thing and haven't been able to move it one pixel. My opinion is the position is hardcoded and/or not user accessible.
