Noob questions

So, my laptop screen resolution is just 1366x768 pixels.  Reduced the screen height already, but I noticed some options disappearing like the officer window from the teams tab .  Anywhere to find it??

P. S.  Any tips for my first game would be appreciated

If you have windows appearing offscreen, did you try the Reset Window positions menu option?

Have you tried some of the solutions here?

As for tips for a new player, I´d suggest going through TheDeadlyShoes´s walkthrough for 6.21 there:

Any specific problem you encounter, just ask here, in the Academy. The community is not very large, but _very_ helpful.

I can see everything well with reduced window heights but the open officers option disappears in from the menu.  hxxp: aurorawiki. pentarch. org/images/5/56/Open_officers_window. jpg

Where does it go?

Ah, I misread your initial question then.

As Erik suggested, try the "reset windows" option (Misc tab) from the main menue (Steve has, afaik, a 3-screen-setup and aurora saves where you put a window, so if steve moves a window on to a second/third screen, but you don´t _have_ a second/third screen, that screen will never appear on your screen)

Important: For this to work, the window in question can´t be opened already, so start aurora and hit the "reset screens" as your first action.


Edit: If this does not work, does the officers window show, if you try to open it via the main menue or the button on the system screen (F3)?

Ah, yes, seems the windows are the problem.  Found it after reseting the window, Thanks
