I upgraded to 1.0 RC2.

Now i can't make visible the window with a compiler-messages.

I'm not newbie and tried "View/Messages" ("Ansicht/Nachrichten") and "Window/Messages" ("Fenster/Nachrichten"),
but the window doesn't appear anywhere on my monitor(s).

May be it's somewhere outside. Where is the configuration file with a window positions? So i could input something like (0,0) or undock from wrong window.

I have Win7, but i found this file.

Code: [Select]
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\lazarus
Manual editing made it!  :D

Thanx a lot! ;)


@Developers it would be nice to have an option for saving and reseting a window layout.

To save your DeskTop go to Menu "Tools/Options" under "Desktop" there is "Save desktop settings to file".  You can also have multiple desktop files and use "Load desktop from file".

-<MessagesView> <Caption Value="Messages"/> <WindowPlacement Value="RestoreWindowGeometry"/> <CustomPosition Height="94" Width="1207" Top="1299" Left="948"/> <WindowState Value="Normal"/> </MessagesView>

What do you change it to, please, to make the messages window appear? I have the above.
