Lionstone Posts: 6 Rating: (0)	Hi! My WinCC-Runtime window should be positioned in the top right corner of my screen. If I place it there manually and restart WinCC it has 'forgotten' the last (=correct) position. Is there a way to define its initial window position? Best regards, Robert

April Posts: 1776 Rating: (95)	Hi, You can do this with the Picture window property "geometry". Calculate the X and Y Position pending on Your screen size, windows width and height. So You can position the window on the top right. Regards April

Lionstone Posts: 6 Rating: (0)	Hi April, I don't have a problem with picture windows, but with the WinCC-Runtime window itself (= entire/'main' window of the runtime; I'm not running WinCC 'full screen' ). Robert

Danielle Posts: 1275 Rating: (123)	Hi Robert, I haven't really seen any examples of setting positions for the runtime window. But I tried doing as you did - dragging the window to the top right, and it starts there even after I stop the project, or shut down WinCC... What are your Graphics Runtime settings? Best regards, Danielle

Lionstone Posts: 6 Rating: (0)	Hello Danielle, I guess the following info should be sufficient for this case, if it's not then let me know what else you need. Window Attributes (only attributes that are currently checked): Title, Border, Status Bar Turn Off (only attributes that are currently checked): Alt-F4, Resize, Minimize, Maximize, Close, Decluttering, Extended zooming No hotkeys, no menu, normal cursor control, remaining settings: default value. What you have done is exactly the same as I've done in the past (pre V6.2) and this always worked!? Best regards, Robert

Danielle Posts: 1275 Rating: (123)	This could be it: I'm under v6.0 SP4 here... and when you had v6.0 it did work too, right? Ikkezelf... you have v6.2 there, right? Does it work for you?

Lionstone Posts: 6 Rating: (0)	Hello, Yes, it did work in previous versions! Oh: I also enable the Active XP user interface design (but I can't see how that will affect the window position). Robert
