Search, filter and favorites form size and position

Hello.
I tested the software in my computer before install it on my arcade and all works perfectly.
In the arcade also works fine but the filter and favorites forms are oversized and not centered, part of the windows remains hidden on the top left side of monitor. I think is because the windows resolution fixed on the arcade is 800x600.
I've tried to find some config file to define the screen resolution but I haven't found nothing.
There's some way to correct this problem?
Thanks.

Could you please try this and see if it fixes your problem?
Right-click on 'Task Bar' > Properties > Check 'Auto Hide Taskbar'

I'll try it... but the taskbar is not visible. And I have realized that the resolution used is 640x480, the arcade monitor don't works with 800x600.

640x480 ! Sorry, but not supported by mGalaxy!
If you really need it I may try to compile you an adapted version (but with no warranty !!)

I think I have not other option. I've been searching for information and seems that a 15hz crt monitor max supported resolution is 640x480 interlaced. I will try with a special compiled version if you kindly could bring it to me. For your information the only problem at 640 is the size and position of option forms, the main menu works perfectly.
Best Regards.

OK, I'll have a look! It's strange that you have no problem with the menu window...which is 560px height! The same for mGalaxy_Runway, which is 600px height!!
Anyway, I'll focus on the favorites windows so!

I haven't notice problems with game selector windows. I think all necessary information is visible. You're right with Runaway. If I need to change settings I must connect to the arcade computer with teamviewer from another computer and use at least 800x600. With 640x480 it's impossible to save because the button is not visible and it's very hard to reach it with tabs.

Could you try this version please:
http://www.mgalaxy.com/other/mGalaxy_Setup.exe
Unfortunately, you'll have to uninstall your previous mGalaxy version, install this one, and configure mGalaxy_Runway again!
In exchange, all your windows (included the mGalaxy_Runway one) should be adapted to your screen resolution.
Hope it'll work !! :-)

Thank you so much. Now works perfectly. You must consider create an alternate download for this version. Anyone with a 15hz arcade monitor will be grateful. Later I'll takes some photos to the arcade machine with mgalaxy running, you could add them to your screenshots.

Ok... windows fits correctly. But I have seen you have made another change to runway. I think you have made some kind of grouping for computer and arcade. Seems to be a bug in this section. I correctly setup mame and bluemsx. In the game list I see the rom names but not the database name. It's strange as I see databases were keep during uninstall and xml file seems to be ok.
When I tried to recreate database the software tries to create the database of another system, not MAME.

I've tried with more systems and all have incorrect database linked.

Are you sure this last compilation has the 640x480 changes? Now all windows are oversized again.
