ADF icon unreachable
« on: October 20, 2024, 05:35:31 PM »
Since playing around with A600GS a lot these days, I came across a situation where you cannot reach the icon of the inserted ADF to click it (or drag it) (see attachments) ... of course there are workarounds like accessing from CLI and so on but there is a possibility that you NEED to access that Disk Icon ...

Is the icon unreachable because the widow title overlays it when it appears?

Have you tried unticking the backdrop item in the AmiBench menu? You should be l to scroll to any icon then.

Yes, it is and since you cannot drag it by the letters you're stuck ...

Of course this is one of the (very ugly) workarounds ... but anyway, I can live with that, did some research and since it´s not really possible to set the default position for disk icons in general so it is what it is :)

It's a feature not a work around :-)

Another feature you can use is to click on one of the other drives and use the arrow keys to navigate t the floppy and pres return to open it

Except that it is in the case you display as that must be the disks own icon (the def_Disk icon is a hard disk style one) so you could re snapshot it once accessed

Also I have just added a suitably snapshotted def_DF0.info along with def_DF1 def_DF2 and def_DF3 for the next update
