higan opens above screen

[darkmage0707077]

higan opens partially "above" the screen area of my window. Different resolutions have different amounts - screenshot is 1280x960 to show most pronounced version. higan can be quickly moved into correct position as a workaround, but it's very annoying that the main menu is above the screen area every time it opens, and I imagine it would be very confusing to new users who aren't aware of how higan operates.

Screen resolution is set to 1366x768 Landscape; changing the resolution doesn't seem to help. Trying to "force" higan to remember its last location using Windows 10 methods also doesn't work; it always opens in the same location.

In the Settings→Scale menu, try setting the smallest scale?

[darkmage0707077]

Still off the screen, unfortunately. Not as much, but still enough for the menu bar to be offscreen and require adjustment.

Do you have an additional monitor connected? Have you had a monitor connected at some time in the past, that maybe Windows thinks is still hanging around for some reason?

No, only ever the single laptop screen.

I’m having the same issue. Laptop is 1920x1080 with 125% zoom. When you turn zoom off it’s fine. You can hit ALT + Space then Maximize as a work around, or create a shortcut and set Run to Maximized

Oh, right, high DPI! @darkmage0707077, are you using some high DPI setting too?

[darkmage0707077]

Yeah, I thought about that, but it's set to 100% scale.

And I've got numerous workarounds for it; I can also just manually resize a part of the window I'm able to see slightly and it automatically moves the whole thing into view.

But as I said, it's rather cumbersome to have to do this or most other workarounds each time I start higan up, and I'm worried about whether new users might be unduly frustrated by it and be discouraged from trying higan because of it.

[Screwtapello]

I agree; unfortunately I don't have any ideas about what might cause this issue; I'll leave it open in case somebody else has some inspiration.

I have the same issue as darkmage. My maximum resolution is 1366x768, also. No scaling is performed through Windows.

I believe the problem has to do with the total height of the program vs the pixel height of the display. I think higan is only checking either the game display area's or the settings panel's height against the monitor's display height, not both the game display area's and settings panel's heights.
