It is very easy. Locate the Edit Person screen to the left side of the monitor(s). Drag the right-hand divider for the Date column all the way to the right of the monitor(s). Neither the boundary of the Details pane nor the edge of the Edit Person window prevent the divider being dragged way outside the window, all the way to the edge of the screen.
The divider becomes irretrievable on my laptop monitor when the Date width setting exceeds ~1420 (presumably px units); the monitor display is set to 125% scale, 1920x1080. If I drag the Edit Person window up to my stacked outboard monitor, same resolution but 100% scaling, I can make the EP window wider and see more of the Date column; its right divider becomes irretrievable above ~1850px column width.
So I think itās a fairly easy, albeit rare, accident for someone to inadvertently drag a divider in some large mouse move and end up in this situation.
EDIT: Reducing the monitor scaling temporarily to as low as it can go (I guess 100% is the floor) could help reveal the Date column divider if monitor scaling was at a higher setting when the divider was sent out-of sight.
You can also change the Font Scaling under Settings, Display Settings. Reducing the scale may help bring the column into view to adjust it. Iāve seen these issues happen when columns were expanded to far in one font scaling and then changed to another.
Per your suggestion, I tried the RM Font Scaling to both extremes and found that it had a very small effect on the width of an oversized Event Date column or that it affected something else in the row that slightly changed the relative position of the Date divider. It could help in marginal cases.
I trust you will take from this topic the need for development to limit excursions of column dividers so that they cannot become lost and inaccessible even when the window is maximised. The Edit Person window itself cannot be made larger than the width of the monitor so it should be possible to limit the width of a column to some percentage of the monitor width or window width.
It took me a while to find this. I understand the SQL commands, I still do not have a way to to execute it. I was able to pull data from RMG10 via MS-Access, but on a different PC (I bought a new laptop just before emigrating, and my old desktop is still in storage in the U.S.) and donāt have the ODBC driver for it on this one; with a background in SQL Server and MS-Access, I STILL have not figured out how to download and set up SQLite. I would appreciate any help offered.
With about 15 messages in four days (and the other topic generating even more), I was a bit overwhelmed trying to sort through everything and manage that three-ring circus that I like to call my life elsewhere. I had to step away, take a second look, and start over.
I either need to get a new ODBC driver set up for MS-Access to RMG10 (something that one of the techs usually did at work, and Iāll have to figure out again, having been retired two years now), or figure out how to download and set up SQLite. If the former is possible, I would rather go with it.
As I said, any help is accepted with gratitude and appreciation.
If you click on the TomH username above a little forum bio opens and there is a link to his shared website for RM Users help and SQL guidance/offerings. They use an SQLite utility that is a graphical (GUI) wrapper that can be configured to use SQLiteās library syntax to understand/read/write the RM database schema/tables/rows/columnsā¦
