Re: [foxboro] AM on third monitor at boot

Tim
the "-1MENU" is in the title bar. However....

*pos_win "FoxView WP1001:WP1001 -1MENU" -size 1280x1024*

did not work either.

i've tried pos_win with all other windows and all worked except for Foxview.


any reason ? perhaps the mimic needs to be resize using Foxdraw - i dont
know if that's possible.

Btw, what i'm trying to achieve is to "merge" several mimic into 1 mimic.
and display it in a very large screen with native resolution of 1920x1080.

all our mimic currently was designed with 1024x768. so regardless of how big
our new screen is it's useless if we still use 1024x768 as native
resolution.
