Equalizer window popup

Postby AA0U » Sun Feb 12, 2023 5:40 pm

I'm running 7000dle MkII and Thetis 2.9.0.6 and I recently clicked on the EQUALIZER tab and the equalizer window did not pop up. All other tabs cause their respective windows to pop up when clicked. Equalizer is operational in xmit. Reload of Thetis did not resolve the problem.
Been using Thetis for a few years and this is the first time I've encountered a problem.
Any ideas?
Tks.

can you see the Equalizer-symbol in the Windows-Taskbar??
May be its in the Background or on another Monitor?

Probably off screen. If you know how to 'drive' windows/forms around by hovering mouse over icon on task bar, and right clicking on the mini version of the EQ form and using the 'move' menu item then you can use that method.

The code restores EQ form position from the database, but after a quick check does not force on screen if it is off screen. I have added the check to move it onto the screen if it is off which will be in next version.

Another method is to change the database.xml if you are ok with doing that. The section you need is :

Code: Select all

<EQForm>
    <Key>Top</Key>
    <Value>372</Value>
</EQForm>
<EQForm>
    <Key>Left</Key>
    <Value>511</Value>
</EQForm>

and you could set the Top and Left both to 0 (zero). Do this whilst Thetis is shut down, and when you restart EQ window should show top left.

Thanks to both Ramdor and Erwin I got the window back.
I did not edit the database.xml. I maximized the blank equalizer window in the task bar and played around with that. Somehow got it back and working.
The quick response in our community certainly is to be appreciated.

In the topic of equalizer did anyone notice that eq is terribly slow or unresponsive compared to the rest of menus?

Negative. It works very smoothly here. Thetis 2.9.0.6 x64 on Windows 10 Pro.
