Adjustment Layer Control Placement


Recommended Posts

I have a two-monitor system for photo editing, one is vertical, since I usually edit portraits, and the other is horizontal. I start the program on the horizontal side, open the file and drag its frame to the vertical side where I open it to fill the monitor. This leaves me the horizontal side to arrange tool panels on.  I enjoy working this way, but there's an annoyance that I don't know how to solve. When I open an adjustment layer, its slider panel always appears on the vertical side under the file I'm working on, which forces me to shrink the file window to find it and drag it to the horizontal monitor where there's plenty of space for it. Is there a way to get the program to remember to place that control on the horizontal side?

Hi @Dandandan,

This is a known issue currently logged with the developers, the adjustment window should be initially appearing on top of the app floated window rather than behind. if you re-size the floated window so that the adjustment dialog is visible and then move the position of the adjustment window onto your desired monitor, subsequent adjustment windows should then remember that last position you moved it to for the remainder of the app session.

The issue "[Win] Adjustment windows pop up behind floated documents instead of above." (REF: AF-335) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "2.4.0.2279".
This fix should soon be available as a customer beta and is planned for inclusion in the next customer release.
Customer beta builds are announced here and you can participate by following these instructions.
If you still experience this problem once you are using that build version (or later) please reply to this thread including @Serif Info Bot to notify us.
