Vitanaut Posted August 21, 2001 Share Posted August 21, 2001 Unlike 8.5.2. every time I start 9.0.1 all my pallets are piled atop one another on the border between my dual monitors. Any hints on how to save my desktop configuation? win 98se 384mb ram, dual monitors Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted August 21, 2001 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted August 21, 2001 VectorWorks saves your workspace settings on quit. So when you quit, all the settings in your current workspace get saved (including which workspace you're in). Are you saying this is not happening for you? Quote Link to comment
Vitanaut Posted August 21, 2001 Author Share Posted August 21, 2001 Yes, Every time I jog off my pallet arrangement reverts to a sigle pile of overlapping pallets. It is a pain to have to set them back up every time I start 9.0.1. Quote Link to comment
smithlb Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Have you checked to see if other settings on your computer are also failing? Clock setting failure may indicate a problem with your PRAM. that may be causing your data not to write properly on close. I use a mac but I have noticed that if i was using a different monitor configuration between startups the window settings get screwed up. Make sure both monitors are up and running properly before you start the program. A simultaneous start is not always effective. Quote Link to comment
jnr Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 This may be related. At least on a pc, if there is a runtime error (ie code conflict)and the program shuts down, one loses any desktop customization. Its bad enough that the program locks up, its worse that you then have to reconfigure everything. Quote Link to comment

Yes that's not fine. For such cases i always have a backup copy of the workspace. Just copy it into the workspace folder. Quote Link to comment
Vitanaut Posted August 23, 2001 Author Share Posted August 23, 2001 Thanks for all the input! However, things have gotten a little off track. My workspace is only affected in so much as the pallet locations are changed. It's not the end of the world -- overall I am quite satidfied with 9.0.1 I would just like advice on how to maintain pallet location using dual moniters. Thanks in advance. -V Quote Link to comment
