Can't seem to move PiP

Post by Kiari » Fri Jul 29, 2005 12:17 am

ok.. so i'm getting frustrated as hell... I paid my dues and started up the whole pip thing.

Its awesome I love it.. but heres my issues:


OK.. so I do Ctrl+Alt+O which should unlock the PiP so I can move it.. well I can't seem to move it.

So then, I set the X/Y for PiP I set it to 1280 x 1024 (trying to get it lower right corner not upper left) That doesnt seem to do anything.

If I do much of any thing trying to get it fixed, PiP totally disappears and I cant get it back up (even when both settings say its on)


help!! =)

To move the window you need to do Ctrl+Alt+O, release the mouse, click on the picture window and drag it. If it wont move, try right clicking on its title bar and making sure "Lock Position" isnt enabled. You should be able to drag it then.

If you set the X,Y to 1280,1024, it will be off the screen on a 1280x1024 resolution. If you want it all the way in the lower right, set it to 1280,1024 minus whatever the size is -- so if your PIP window size is, say, 640x512 just for example, you would subtract 1280-640 and 1024-512 and come up with 640,512. Play with the numbers a little at a tmie, hit apply, and the window should move itself immediately. Also, be aware that these settings should be applied to the profile that is the main window, not the picture window's profile if you are using multiple profiles. This allows you to set a custom position for each main window in case you have your UI set up differently per character, etc.

Let me know if this helps

ok.. im using the default profile for both atm just till I figure it out. Basically I got the windows back up and when i first did it I could actually move them manually.. now when I click on it to move it, it switches to the other instance of wineq and vice versa.


So then I tried doing what you said.. change the numbers around nstuff so I did that under default profile, hit apply and nothing changed.


am i bugged? =0)

sighs.. now its working again I rebooted wineq again and it worked this time..

but back to not being able to move the windows when i try to click on the border to show the options, it automatically switches to the other instance and changing the x/y in preferences doesnt do anything
