Map Editor SCROLLING ISSUES - Dan Caviness - 07-23-2012 Hello Fellow H2H'ers/Blitznards/Gentlemen Warriors: I think this has been discussed before (by me...I'm necroposting the topic...lol...:) but I'm hoping someone has found a way to cure the scrolling issues in MAP EDITOR. When you scroll over your map, and click on a hex, any hex, it's not exactly where the program has drawn it, and there is a constant "realignment" needed in order to create maps. Accurate maps that is, the type you Blitz'ers have come to enjoy, demand, and did I mention enjoy? I've tried turning "Auto Scroll" OFF with no results. I know my Windows 7 / 64 Bit is causing the problem, perhaps there is a way to run in an emulator mode? I usually change views to get the on screen map portion redrawn, which does correct the misalignment, but it's a pain. Regards, Dan RE: Map Editor SCROLLING ISSUES - Crossroads - 07-26-2012 This is a common W7 64 bit issue, there's a few threads regarding this I believe... A quick fix is to locate the map editor exe, right click to view its Properties, then to disable the Desktop something, Desktop Composition? Sorry, I am not at my PC right now. That should fix it in most of the cases. RE: Map Editor SCROLLING ISSUES - Crossroads - 07-26-2012 Found the thread, here's what Jason recommends as settings for a W7 64bit rig: https://www.theblitz.club/message_boards/showthread.php?tid=57843 Again, disabling Desktop Composition seems to do the trick alone in most cases. RE: Map Editor SCROLLING ISSUES - Dan Caviness - 07-29-2012 Thanks Petri! I'll give it a try this morning. First I'll try disabling desktop composition, then if needed I'll use Jason's thread. Regards, Dan RE: Map Editor SCROLLING ISSUES - Dan Caviness - 08-08-2012 Worked like a charm...mapmaking resumed. Thanks again, Dan
