We have been using the 5.10 version for the last few weeks and I am having a problem with the screen display. I have two screens and when i first started to using 5.10 I had the input on the left hand screen and the graphics on the right hand screen. Don't ask how I managed to do it but now I have the graphics at the bottom of the screen and the input at the top. Can you give me a little help so I can get the set up back to what is was before with the input on the left and the graphics on the right.

I have one complant about version 5.10 vs 4.5 and that is the quality of the graphics you can save as a bpm for use in reports ect. every thing looks great on the screen but when you try and save it to use in a report it is well below average compared to 4.5. Is there any settings which can improve the quality of the the graphics stored as a bitmap, jpeg ect.

thanks for your help.

You should be able to grab the title bar of the graphics window and just drag it to your other monitor.

BMP is a better format (from a quality view point) to save than JPG. There is no reason the BMP files generated should vary between versions, the same can be said about JPG files.

One thing you may try, just incase something erroneous crept into the mix, is to delete the PREPIP key from the Registry. Start REGEDIT and navigate to:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\COADE, Inc.\CAESAR II\5.10"

From here, delete the entire "PREPIP" key. If that doesn't help, send an example BMP from both versions to (David Little) dlittle@coade.com.
