Bug:Multiple monitors and MessageModal MSG_XPOS

Post by Captive » Sun Nov 07, 2004 12:00 am

I have multiple monitors.

Using
Let>MSG_XPOS=100
Let>MSG_YPOS=100
Message>Hello world

Works fine. The message window appears in the top left of my first monitor, at X=100, Y=100.

However, if I use MessageModal instead;
Let>MSG_XPOS=100
Let>MSG_YPOS=100
MessageModal>Hello world

The dialog appears on my second monitor, at approx 1252,100.

If I set XPOS to be -1000, messagemodal's appears on my first monitor (but then Message dialogs appear off-screen).

Edit: This also appears to happen with "Ask" and "Dialog" windows too.
