PM GUI - Keep window positions

[morpheus93]

I have the problem that PM always starts on the wrong screen on RDP with Windows Server 2016 when I re-open it. Also all the other windows I arranged before are on the wrong places.
That's quite annoying and time consuming to re-arrange all the things back to the intented position.
Any solution or workaround for this?

Thanks.

Not sure how it actually looks like... wrong screen on rdp...
do you have dual monitor?

 

[morpheus93]

Yes, I have dual monitor on my working computer (Windows 11) and connecting to PM on server via RDP (Server 2016 Standard). Mostly PM's main window is on the wrong screen after re-connecting or re-starting PM and also the browser window, variables- and element-tree/properties windows are somewhere. So I have everything to re-arrange before I can start working again.

Have you tested version 7.7.3.0 already? there were some fixes for interface window positions

 

[morpheus93]

Already tested 7.7.3.0 but having the issue that PM stucks on some cubes for a very long time and can't be interrupted by the "Stop" button.

I think this because of Windows 11.

I think this because of Windows 11.

The reset of the window and panel positions or the stucking of PM during debugging? As I tried PM 7.7.3.0 on the Windows Server 2016 and faced the problem that it stucked while debugging and Server 2016 should base on Win 10.

I assumed you tested 7.7.3.0 on windows 11...

Has anyone an idea or recommendation to get around the issue of the messed up window positions of PM on Windows Server (2016)? It's really, really annoying and time consuming to re-arrange all back after I got disconnected from the RDP session. Sometimes it keeps the window positons but most of the time not.

It seems to be in some correlation that I use 2 monitors while connecting to the Server via Microsoft Remote Desktop client but all the approaches and solutions I found during my research on google and so on are not working.

Thank you guys!

if i'm understanding correctly your problem, i think you should right click the rdp from desktop and go to display and select full screen and save profile. When you have different resolutions it happens like this, or at least that worked for me. Hope it helps.
