by any chance CCP have you changed anything to the screen resolutions of the game.

as i used to be able to use Fixed Window correctly and now i cannot. and when i put my clients in windows. they go half on the screen and half not.

changing the resolutions for me just increases the window in fullscreen mode it doesnt fit to my screen.
and downsizing my screen resolution doesnt work either.

because i thought you had fixed it so you could now run higher resolutions. but recently due to patchs ive been unable to use fixed window mode or window mode correctly.

heres a picture of window mode for me.

Take note that i run in 1920x1080 resolution, and downsizing my resolution makes it worse. or increasing the windows box resolution, it doesnt position on to my screen.

Window Mode


now i know you're going to say "why dont you just drag the box to the top of youre destop and click the maximize button"

yes this may do the trick. but when i switch clients to another. as i multi-box clients. it reverts it back to over the screen, and not maximized like i just made it.


and heres the picture of fullscreen:

Fullscreen 1920x1080

i know supposidly it's should be fitted to my screen, but instead. it increases the box and smash's it outside of my screens viewing area. and when you're screen is already in 1920x1080... and the game not working in that resolution makes me wonder wtf....

Dxdiag.txt - just incase you're curious heres my DXdiag, if it helps.
- Cheers for you're time.

I too am experiencing this. Doing research I found this post. Can someone address this because it ruins running multiple clients for me.

I have one client running in 1366 x 768 and my other screen is 1280 x 1024

Both are in windowed mode, and I can minimize each other them and move them around, change settings with no problems.


When I go from full screen and minimize down to windowed mode, Mine have ALWAYS gone off the screen a bit when they minimize down... I just grab the client window and drag it back onto the screen.
