Positioning of Screen

I have a little card game, when I run it the screen is in the top left hand corner of the screen?
Is there any way I can make it start in the middle of the screen?
Thanks, Johnny C

Cursor position on screen data in module pool programming(urgent)

Hi all,
I developed a module pool program which will save the data after scanning the barcode data.
In my program screen 100 is there which contains field 2dbar. scanned data is comming to 2dbar field.
we r doing scan 4 times.once for vendor number,once for material no. like this.
After 1st scan, vendor number will come to field 2dbar.
Then I developed logic to put comma after each scanned data come to this field 2dbar.
MODULE put_comma INPUT.
CASE OK_CODE.
when ''.
move 2dbar to 2dbar1.
clear 2dbar.
concatenate 2dbar1 ',' into 2dbar2.
*replace 2dbar with 2dbar2 into 2dbar.
move 2dbar2 to 2dbar.
*write 2dbar2 to 2dbar.
condense 2dbar no-gaps.
*move '' to 2dbar.
*set cursor field 2dbar offset 5.
*write
ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE. " put_comma INPUT
By above logic, comma comes to the starting position of 2dbar after each scan. i.e cursor position is coming to the starting position of screen field 2dbar.
Now I need to move the cursor position after the comma position on 2dbar after each scan.
after 1st scan, 2dbar contains
vmotorola
then my logic puts a comma when u put enter on screen 100.
now 2dbar contains
vmotorola,
i should get the cursor position after the comma.but i am getting cursor position before 'v'.so how to move this cursor position beyond comma after each scan.
I added set cursor command but it is not working.plz
What is the logic, I need to put in PAI to move the cursor on selection screen.
Already the logic I have mentioned. with that logic, I can put comma.now I need to add cursor movement logic to move the cursoron on screen field 2dbar.
Plz reply me as it is urgent.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
pabitra

Question: How to draw to an arbitray position on Screen

How can one draw to an arbitrary position on screen without getting a Graphics object from a JFrame, JDialog, etc...?
I am needing the ability to create a special kind of popup, like a tooltip, but with a special shape (Like the text spoken by characters in a comic book).

Hi acalvin1,
The thing you are drawing will need to be in some kind of container/window/frame, whatever you want to call it. This is due to the way that the swing libraries delegate the painting of top level containers to their peer equivalent on the OS you are using. Once you have this container you can pretty much draw in it what you like.
To create speach bubbles you would need to create a component that takes care of painting itself via its paint method (really). You need to get the graphcis object for drawing irrespective of the type of shape you want to draw.
You may want to consider posting to the swing forum as you might get a better response.

Component position on screen

Hi all
Maybe it's too easy problem, but I would appreciate if someone help me. How can I obtain the java.swing.JComponent's position on screen?
The methods getX() and getY() always returns 0.
Many thanks

Components don't have a location until the GUI is actually visible. The getX and getY methods would return the location relative to the parent.

Mouse position on screen

Facebook Login Window Position on screen

I am working on a kiosk application that must be ADA compliant. Since the screen is vertical and designed for a standing adult, to be ADA comliant, there must be a mode where the UI is all on the lower portion of the screen. This is simple except that I cannot get the Facebook Login window to display in the lower portion of the screen, it will only appear in the center in a new OS window. The LoginWindow class has two properties of width and height that can be set, but not the position of the window on the screen. Is there a way to set a position for where the Facebook Login window appears on screen?

That sounds like an OS level question rather than an AIR specific question. You may have better luck searching for support on your OS.

ITunes 9.2.1 (4) problem with position on screen

Ever since i upgraded to iTunes 9 i am unable to keep the program where i like it.
For instance i use the mini player and put it in the bottom left corner of my screen right along the bottom of the screen. Then i maximize the program to change music and hit the + symbol to go back to mini player, the program sits about 1cm up from the bottom of the screen.
Every time I put it back in the bottom corener, same thing again, maximize and minimize, back up to 1cm above the bottom of the screen. Right in line with the top of my dock. and no my dock is tiny, its not sitting on top of or near it.
Only since the update.
Any ideas?

Here's what I had to do - and so far it has kept its settings.
- Go to the top of iTunes in the gray shaded area & right click
- Click on "size" - the cursor should change from an arrow to 4 arrows resembling a square (seen when editing a picture in other programs such as word)
- Left click & hold to drag iTunes until you can see a side (either left or right - doesn't matter)
- Once you see a side, you can move to that side (cursor changes from 4 arrows resembling a box to a left/right arrow) and bring the side in - decreasing the iTunes window - I did this to the left, top & right until all 3 sides were visible on my screen
- I then lined it up and adjusted all 3 sides so that I could see everything (even the up/down slide bar to the far right)
- Once I was happy with the position, I held the CTRL key down while closing iTunes (this saves the setting)
Now, when I open iTunes, it's where I left it. Hoping this is a permanent fix. We shall see.
Hope this helps some.

Elements 10 organizer window position on screen.

I am helping an elderly friend who uses Elements 10 on a MAC, his organizer window appears on screen with the top line/menu bar having File, Edit, find, View etc. off the screen at the top and I can't move it down to display properly. I am not very familiar with a MAC being a PC user myself, does anyone know why this has happened and how to fix it please?

I totally don't understand what you're saying, sorry. One major difference between PSE in windows vs the mac version, is that on a mac, for both the editor and the organizer, that top line is attached to the top of the mac's screen itself, not the program window. You can't do anything to the organizer window that would cover it.
See:
So are you sure he's not just looking in the wrong place? No matter where I put an application window, that top bar with the black apple is at the top of the display in every program.

Windows 7 explorer run prompt window position on screen varies

whether I use the mouse via start/run or <windows key>+R the small window that appears to await input from me for the run command line dpes not consistently appear in the lower left above the windows start globe (forgive inaccurate nomenclature).
Generally speaking, say 50% of the time, the machine; a dual xeon HP z820 with AMD Firepro graphics and 3 display port NEC monitors with the AMD/ATI current catalyst pro drivers and NEC spectraview 2 running, puts the run window immediately above
the start globe. but the other half or more of the time it could be dead center in the active monitor or at varied locations about the center of the active monitor (reported as #2 in the Microsoft ID monitors results). It's never been on a non
primary monitor and I've tried switching monitors. to change the active one, and I've tried switching between and deleting the profiles for eyefinity, which btw is rarely in use. It's generally just in the extended windows mode with 3 monitors.
Is there a way to correct, control, or otherwise manage the location of the run prompt window?
thanks in advance,
fw

I came here looking for a solution to a similiar issue where the "RUN" dialog kept popping up in the middle of my screen. This thread helped me find the answer even though the answer was not in this thread. I thought I post what actually fixed my issue.
AMD graphics have a feature in AMD Catalyst Control Center. Look for a setting called "Dialog Control \ Enable Dialog Repositioning" it is enabled by default and makes your dialogs go to the center of your primary screen. Disable it and
everything goes back to normal.

How to specify GUI starting position on screen

Hello lads.
I'm trying to figure out how to specify where a GUI begins (the default seems to be the top left hand corner of the screen).
In my GUI program there are many "blocks". Each time one of these blocks is used another small GUI pops up. I would like for the GUI to appear:
A) at least - in the middle of the screen. But
B) hopefully, if possible - at the block that was just accessed.
Can anyone point me in right direction please?
Oh and also, I am aware of the JPopupMenu class. I am not using it.
I would be greatful for any suggestions.
Cheers.

Cheers Darryl.

[Solved] Syslinux: changing menu position on screen?

Hi there!
I'm trying to adjust the menu-position in syslinux to get the menu out of the upper left corner. I'm using a 1920x1080 resolution with a fitting backgroundimage. But I cannot find any information about how to use parameters like "VSHIFT" in syslinux.cfg. I've tried to fiddle around with it, but I'm not able to find out what system is behind this setting.
Has anyone a working config for this resolution or any other hint for me?
Thank you!

HA! Got it!
This is really easy, if (!) you understand how it works. If Anyone with a FullHD-Display is searching for this:
MENU VSHIFT -25
MENU HSHIFT 80
VSHIFT with a negative value mean "rows from bottom to top". HSHIFT 80 is (as far as my ruler says) perfectly centered.
Next steps: changing colors.
Many thanks for the help!

Applescript to open Mail & position on screen!!

Hi
I am brand new to Apple scripts and dont have a clue how to program them.
I would like a script to help me check payment emails to entries to a charity bike ride that I have listed in a Filemaker pro database. At the moment I have to re position the mail window and the Filemaker pro window side by side so I can check each email against an entry and then file it.
My goal would be to write a script to organise my desktop for me.
I have programmed Filemaker pro to open a new window positioned itself far left of the desktop. I can then get it to trigger an applescript. Is it possible to get one to open the mail app, go to a particulat folder and then position itself on the desktop to the right so I can see the two windows side by side.
It would be good if I could tell it the absolute postion of the window and even the size then once the script is in place I could just change the values to fine tune.
Thanks in advance.

How are you driving Filemaker to position its window? The chances are that positioning Mail.app's windows is just the same.
The bit you're probably missing is in selecting the message in question. That's a two-part thing that involves manipulating a message viewer:
tell application "Mail"
          set selected mailboxes of message viewer 1 to mailbox "Stuff"
          set selected messages of message viewer 1 to (get message 1 of mailbox "Stuff")
end tell
This script first sets the current message viewer to point to the 'Stuff' mailbox, then it selects the first message in that mailbox. From there you can set the bounds of the message viewer to size and position the window as you like:
          set bounds of message viewer 1 to {100, 100, 500, 500}

Retrieve 3 rows of data and put each row in different position on screen

I need to retrieve 3 consecutive rows of data (easy) and need to put each row's data in an entirely different location on the home page
for example,
row 1 needs to go up in the top left content box
row 2 needs to go in the large content area in the middle of the page
row 3 needs to be put down in the footer of the page
what's the most efficient way to do this ?

Ok, I've tried to research this a bit more, but I'm no further forward
So if I have a query...
<cfquery name="getData" datasource="foo">
SELECT *
FROM 00_pricelist
</cfquery>
<cfoutput query="GetData" startrow=1 maxrows=3 >
     
     #getData.uneak_code[1]#<br />
     
     #getData.uneak_code[2]#<br />
     
     #getData.uneak_code[3]#<br />
</cfoutput>
can you tell me what I'm doing wrong ?

Positioning Multiple pdfs on array of 6 large screens when each pdf is restarted

I am setting up an array of 6x 42” screens connected to a single windows computer using 2 x nVidia NVS 510 4 port graphics cards.
nView ver 141.00 is installed.
we are using Adobe reader X
Our challenge is how to run multiple pdf displays each starting automatically and being positioned with one pdf displayed
on each screen. We are initiating each display from a shortcut in the Start folder.
The main problem is the each pdf defaults to being located in the same position and screen as the previous one.
If I locate the pdfs on the required screen then close each one. The first pdf reopened opens in the position of the last one closed and subsequent pdfs open on the primary monitor.

I have subsequently noticed tyhat the problem is related to pdfs that are set to display in full screen mode
