Control Panel will not display (regression?) .539

I am currently running a sequence and I cannot get the CP to show.

Original issue

Left or right clicking on CP does nothing as far as I can tell.

Only two things new/changed in my setup:

Installed .539
Installed Falcon Rotater, not tonight but recently.

Aprox time of issue: 10:48 PT

Link to Logs

Useful Info

OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Ver: 3.1.0.539
.NET: 4.8

Interesting. I had exactly the same problem last night, and exactly the same two things changed as you did (upgraded SGP, installed Falcon Rotator). First time I’ve had this issue.

Due to plenty of cloudy nights and other equipment issues I have not ran SGP in awhile. But will look for this issue going forward.

This is on a Remote Desktop setup and the remote laptop screen resolution (1366x960) is not the same as the local (client resolution which is 2k). So if SGP is doing some sort of screen size calculations depending upon screen size, this may be involved.

Hm, if you opened it up on the local machine and then connected remotely I could see this being the case. I’ll add a menu item to address this. But for the time being you can open up the file located here:

C:\Users\<YOUR_USERNAME>\AppData\Local\SequenceGenerator\sgpro_settings.json

Find the entry for _settingCpPosition and change the value to something like “0, 0”:

“_settingCpPosition”:“0, 0”

Nah, I don’t think we are talking about the same thing.
I start Remote Desktop, and within that remote session via the remote win 10 machine I startup the various programs including SGP.

NTL, I checked the setting mentioned and it already had the values noted.

It’s doubtful that those values would actually be 0,0 in almost any configuration.

Also I’m not sure I understand what you mean here when you’re also stating that the CP is not visible:

Left or right clicking on CP does nothing as far as I can tell.

Is the CP showing up just empty?

Jared

By “CP” I mean the button on the toolbar that is supposed to bring up the CP. Not accurate I’ll refer to “CP button” in the future.

When this happens, nothing shows. I am aware of the prev hack of right clicking on CP button to get it to re-init to a known position - but that did nothing either.

In regards to the setting values - that’s what the setting was set to in the json file - don’t know what else to say there.

Lastly, it seems as if this problem only occurs at some point after starting a sequence. Typically, while a sequence is running, I want to verify or change something and attempt to bring up the CP - and this issue happens.
