I typically use 2 additional monitors.
My set up is: Main screen (middle) 15" MBP Retina set to 1920 x 1200 Left Monitor 21" Samsung SyncMaster set to 1440 x 900 (default) Right Monitor 24" Benq set to 1920 x 1080 (default) The MBP is running 10.11.6 I do NOT use the Spaces feature of OS X LC 9.0.0 dp 11 Graham, when you see this, open the Tool Palette (TP), move it so it's directly adjacent to the PB with the tops aligned. As you move the mouse over the TP you'll notice that the wrong icons will highlite. So for instance in one test I did, I had the mouse over the 'Player' icon, yet the 'Clock' icon highlited (offset high). In another test I had the mouse over the 'Pointer tool' yet the 'Check Box' icon highlited (offset low). With this knowledge you can easily get the PB to work. Move the mouse over the TP until an icon horizontally aligned with the +/- icon (or any of the Tree view objects listed) is highlited, then move the mouse horizontally into the PB until it's directly above/below the +/- icon (or any other object listed) and Click. The offset of where the click actually occurs in comparison to where the mouse visibly is is exactly the same in the PB as the TP. Of course this is a silly way to work. The whole lot can be fixed simply as others have pointed out, align the tops of the monitors in the Display Preference Pane. I just wanted to prove it's the same issue. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
