1.8.7 has a display bug

Anmeldedatum: 16.12.2015 Beiträge: 6

The windows that MPE shows at the end of the compare phase (it shows all proposed changes) displays its top lines well above the top of my screen.

Therefore, I cannot see the first proposed change. Worse, I cannot "pointer-grab" the top edge of that window to move it elsewere, because the pointer-sensitive area is hidden above and out of my screen. No other border of that window is pointer-sensitive.

1.8.6 did not have this display problem...

Is there a way to change the initial positionning of that window, so it can be fully on my screen ? Maybe parameters on a command line ?

Apart from this, the software is great ! Can't survive without !

You might try pressing Alt-space then M and see if you can move the window around with the cursor keys press Enter when done moving. This key combination allows you to move most Windows windows around on the Desktop. Note the window needs to be NOT maximized. In Win7 and later the windows key plus arrow keys may preposition the window as well. Not sure if any of these will help with your issue or not.

Thank you for this answer that I have thoroughly tried.
Unfortunately, none of those actions does anything to that damned window : I cannot grab the top of that window to bring it back inside my display...

I currently launch MPE by executing MyPhoneExplorer.exe.
Where can I find a list of parameters that can be added on the command line that launches MPE ?

Hi,
- please close MPE
- open the c:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\MyPhoneExplorer \general.ini in an editor
- Edit "Top=0" in "Top=100" and save it

best regards

Thanks for the answer.
I have tried to edit the "Top" parameter in general.ini, as advised (it was set at 35). But it seems that the 4 parameters Top, Left, Height, Width only control the location and dimension of the MAIN WINDOW to display the contacts, or calendar éléments, or others.

The window that I have a problem with is the one that pops-up at the end of a sync, after the compare phase, to propose the modifications to be made to contacts and Schedule elements.

The top of that windows is outside my screen upper limit, and therefore I cannot read the first lines, and cannot grab the window to move it back inside my screen.

Is there a list of what does each parameter in the genral.ini file, and the acceptable values ?

Oh sorry, you mean the confirmation window. The position depends on the main window. Workaround: Put the main window below please.
