[Dx4win] DX Spot Window

[Tim moore]

Assuming you haven't just minimized the Spot window (and you'd see it
listed in your Task bar at the bottom of Windows if that was the case),
then you may have  moved the Spot window to "off screen". Been addressed a
lot on this Reflector in the past. Go to your saved files for
DX4WIN.....and look up your config.txt file. Open it, scroll down towards
the bottom of that file, and there is a configuration area for  that has
this info (typical values listed here):

[W-SPOT]
HEIGHT=231
LEFT=-876
TOP=5
WIDTH=865

That's the info for the config/positioning of the Spot Window. Usually you
can change the values.....for instance set Height and Left to 0 for
instance, and it will reposition your Spot Window. It's probably located
"off screen" right now. Most likely..............

Might want to make a backup of your config.txt file....before you mess with
it.................
