Timer Calculator - Window position

#1 Post by LJStefan » 08 Oct 2014 21:29

Hello ME-Team,
I have some troubles with the (default) position of the Timer Calculator window.
My setup has 3 screens and the timer calculator start's allways on Desktop center...
The Windows7 Hotkey [Windows] + [SHIFT] + [Left] will not solve this.
What can i do in this case to use the program?

Best regards,
Stefan

I have this problem with LOTS of different programs that are not re-sizeable.

Here is a very simple VB program that I had to create when I went from XP to Windows 7 because as you have found out, there is no way of moving a fixed size program if it is off screen.

Simply run the program, click on the file itself if you can see any part of it or click on the task bar icon associated with it. When you click on the move, it will set the x:y origin to the same as the program.

I use a laptop at work with two BIG monitors attached and when I work from home, I use one smaller monitor and so suffer from this quite often.

Enjoy.
