+---- Thread: Tertiary window positions not following parent window screen location (/showthread.php?tid=2587)
Tertiary window positions not following parent window screen location - Snowmantis - 02-27-2021
Scope: Tertiary window pop-ups such as "Request Transport", "New production line", or Change production line
Bug: The tertiary window fails to "follow" or pop up with the the main game UI or on the same screen as the parent window after operating on the secondary screen in a dual monitor scenario (even after game restart). The tertiary window is lost until the dual monitor is reconnected.
Current remedy: Reconnect computer to the second monitor, activate the tertiary window, drag the window over to the primary screen with the other Game UIs.
Steps to reproduce:
- Hardware: Gaming laptop with HDMI connected secondary monitor (in split desktop configuration, not spanned)
- Launch game with a dual monitor connection
- Move game and any windows that popup to secondary monitor including the tertiary windows.
- Disconnect cable from second monitor - game still playable when it moves to main screen (automatically) except the tertiary windows.
- The tertiary windows still attempt to pop up on the secondary monitor and is reproducible by plugging in the second monitor, moving the "Tertiary Window" over to the main screen, disconnect secondary monitor. The "Tertiary Window" is now available on the main screen.
- The issue persists through game save, and relaunch
** It is understood that the design of the game is to allow windows to be placed anywhere desired, however the game can literally become unusable in laptop situations where the laptop becomes mobile and disconnected from secondary monitors.
