More of a UI annoyance, if someone else can verify or try to duplicate this behaviour? If the system screen zoom level is set to 100% and the Current Seen windows are quite large, if the computer switches the display to 125%+ and the window goes (partially) off-screen, the next time launching DSDPlus you won't be able to call up the window again, it'll just flash on the screen. I've seen some other apps, if they encounter this problem the window is automatically resized to fit the screen at the system display zoom level. This might be because how DSDPlus draws the windows isn't standard - scroll bars and window resizing only with the triangle (can't drag the window borders?)

The way to fix this is change the zoom level back to 100%, resize the offending window and move it closer to the upper left portion, then re-zoom the screen back to the larger size.

Display @ 100% on external desktop screen
Display @ 125% when external screen disconnected (since it's only a 15" screen and you know, old eyes...)

I'm using a mini HP laptop for my vehicle, and I can't get the current seen groups or radios to show at all.

And I don't see a command line option (like other windows) to be able to move it.

It seems like if any part of the window is past the visible display area, then the bug/error happens and the window doesn't appear at all even if the title bar would be on screen for you to move it.

It’s in the Misc tab in the event log scrolling window.
