Re: [time-nuts] Lady Heather Ver 5 Problem - full screen mode
Just noticed by accident if you have a small screen mode if you click on the top of the screen and drag it up above the top of the monitor and release the mouse button it will change to full screen mode. Learn something new every day! 73, Bill, WA2DVU Cape May Ahhh, full screen mode... the demon mode from hell. On most modern systems with large monitors it crashed the program. It uses DirectDraw and if your DirectDraw implementation does not handle your monitor size, bye bye Heather. That means full screen mode (or clicking the MAXIMIZE button or pressing F11 crashes Heather unless your monitor or graphics driver was a standard VGA era screen res like 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, or 1280x1024). Only those four monitor widths allow full screen mode. Monitor height is not check for. Because pressing the MAXIMIZE button was quite easy to do accidentally, full screen mode is disabled by default (but F11 can't be disabled). If your monitor / graphics driver is one of the magic sizes you can enable full screen mode with the new /fu command. For instance for a 1024x768 screen try: /fu /vm If you have a larger monitor and can configure your display driver for one of the magic sizes, that works. The /f command now brings up Heather in a windowed mode sized to fill (most of) the screen. You can also do that with $f from the keyboard. ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
Re: [time-nuts] Lady Heather Ver 5 Problem
To the group. I have installed LH in the program folders of XP and also in other directories they all seem to work as long as I clearly tell LH the place to look. Regards Paul WB8TSL = Paul, with Windows-7 and later directory protections have been tightened, and the user is no longer set up with Administrative privilege, hence the need to install programs where write access is needed to the program's directory outside the Program Files (or equivalent) tree. Yes, Windows has work-rounds with virtual directories, but it's often more confusion than it's worth. It must be over 7 years now since I had an Administrator-level user account, and I've never missed it. There are easy ways to get the privileges when you need then, just for that one task. 73, David GM8ARV -- SatSignal Software - Quality software written to your requirements Web: http://www.satsignal.eu Email: david-tay...@blueyonder.co.uk Twitter: @gm8arv ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Re: [time-nuts] Lady Heather Ver 5 Problem
Dick I create a small batch and granted some of this can be done in the config file. I explicitly switch to the location I have LH in within the batch. Then do the following heather /1 /f /rxz /tz=-5est/edt The 1 is the comport f is full screen rxz is z3801 tz if the timezone offset. I have several batch files for different receivers and I have run several LHs at the same time. TBolt and Z3801 as examples. Though without looking at full screen the pix is useless. To the group.
