P3DV5.1FSUIPC6 window has fallen of my screens

Hi all,

I have a multimonitor setup, and today when I selected FSUIPC from the Add on menu as normal the P3D screens went black but the FSUIPC UI window was nowhere to be found. Basically this CTDs my P3D because the only thing left is shutting down P3D using task manager. What I tried to sove this:

-Reboot P3D and desktop

-Change configuration of multiple screens

-unplugging a screen

-SHIFT rightclick in the taskbar

But I just can't get the FSUIPC window back on my screens. As long as I don't select FSUIPC everything is fine.

Is there eg a config change that could resolve this?

Version 6.0.12 of FSUIPC fixed a bug in how the console window position is saved.  If your FSUIPC.dll is dated before 12 Jan 2021, you'll want to update it.

I have installed FSUIPC 6.0.12 however I still only get the black screen and have to close P3D down get get rid of it. I even unplugged all my screens, but  the same happens with only 1 screen connected. My FSUIPC console log window is showing by the way, but not the FSUIPC UI window.

Thanks to a very smart person, my problem has been resolved. Once he told me about it, I found the following..

"just looked at your INI file that shows that the Dialog window is positioned far of the screen, 5271 pixel to the left of the primary screen

OptionsDialogOffset=-5271, -10

Just open the FSUIPC6.ini file with a text editor and change that line i.e. to

OptionsDialogOffset=100, 100

You will find that line within the [General] section in the last lines of that section"

All good now😅
