Some how I have ended up placing the GG frame anchor outside of the edge of the screen. I now cannot figure out how to, easily, get it to show back up on my screen.

It there something I can do, or a debug setting that can be toggled to revert its position back to default?

commented

and ofc still having the massive screen issue to this date :)

commented

I installed GG for the first time from Twitch (formally Curse) and my frame is off the screen and looks totally wonky. Please see my screenshot- it has not been cropped and was taken in full screen. This add-on is unusable in this state.

Whats your Screen Size??? I can't confitm that..

But i will not fix this in this Version. I work an a Rewrite for that window, but it takes time :)

commented

My computer's native resolution is 1366 x 768. I use many addons and I've never seen one that doesn't natively fit or scale to fit my screen but this one.

I've attached additional screenshots to show how other interfaces appear. Are the options for this addon so big that they can't fit on my screen like everything else?

As is said; i'm really unhappy with then Configuration Frame and i want to rewrite this.

commented

Well that fixed his configuration screen maybe, but not my notification frame issue.

List frame<-->
<Frame name="GuildGreetList" toplevel="true" parent="UIParent" hidden="true" enableMouse="true" movable="true">

should have look like:

List frame<-->
<Frame name="GuildGreetList" toplevel="true" parent="UIParent" hidden="true" enableMouse="true" movable="true" clampToScreen="true">

this way the frame does not dispensary off the screen like the issue I was having. I switched from 5760x1080 resolution back to 1920x1080. I had the List frame on a side monitor, not center of my triple monitors, and the List Frame was hidden off my screen. Adding the clampedToScreen will prevent this from happening, or people accidentally moving it off screen.

commented

This is a good habit to get into on any frame that you make movable. Prevents issue as I am encountering. I have implemented this on all my addons.

commented

Yeah I would suggest adding clampToScreen="true" to your xml of the frame creation would solve my issue, you are missing this.

commented

i will fix that tonight... Thank you :)

Same build, same stated resolution. Some how I think your in game resolution is not truly 1920x1080, just guessing.

That is really odd then, cause yeah you should have no issues. I would have to update stuff on the wifes pc to be able to view it on a none modded game anymore.

commented

@gOOvER what do you think of this ?

commented

I have same issue there - https://i.imgur.com/uZfXUI7.png
My resolution is 1920x1200, I tryed window mode but its not helped

commented

i do not have Problems with that and can't really reproduce for testing.

i will take a look, when i have more time

commented

commented

commented
