Multiple Monitors
« on: May 20, 2025, 09:58:58 pm »
I work on multiple monitors as i am sure everyone does. Is there a way where the railclone style editor comes up on a different screen rather than the primary monitor?

Hi,

The Style Editor window's size and position are stored in the following system registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Itoo Software\RailClone\Style Editor

I’ve done some quick tests using a secondary monitor, and it appears to behave correctly — the size & position is successfully restored.

Thanks in advance for any additional details you can provide - your feedback is always valuable, both for us and for other users who might encounter similar issues.

Best regards,

When you say "behave correctly" do you mean it pops up on a different monitor? not your primary? Thanks

Yes, based on my tests, once the Style Editor window is positioned and closed on the second monitor, it correctly reopens in the same location (on the second monitor) — even for new RailClone objects.

Could you please briefly describe the behavior you're experiencing on your system? Does the position reset with every new RailClone object, after a 3ds Max reset, or following a system reboot? Also, please let us know your software configuration - specifically your OS, 3ds Max, and RailClone versions. Thanks in advance for any additional details you can provide.

Best regards,
