I've got two monitors and repositioned one below the other - now all the views are jacked up.
Some are way zoomed in (don't even see the cockpit), some are skewed...
How can I reset all this?

Re: Moved monitors and now all views jacked up
Most probably it's a problem with the NVidia settings.
I'd try to re-arrange the monitors there, then also P3D should offer correct views again.

Re: Moved monitors and now all views jacked up
I changed the resolution of one of my monitors yesterday - restarted P3D and the views were all jacked up!
What's causing this??
I went back to the old res and restarted - still jacked up.
By "jacked up" - i mean the main view spans both the monitors - when I really want it on the main monitor (Windows monitor id #2) - that's the way it was working ok before.
I then have to re-install everything from the ground up.
Would setting view-groups help - if so any help appreciated.

Hello,
When you save a scenario the view locations are also saved out. These are in desktop coordinates so monitor resolution or position changes will impact their positions. You will need to reposition your views and save your scenario again once their placements are correct.

Re: Moved monitors and now all views jacked up
ok.
The problem is that the main view (i.e. of the 3d cockpit + the front outside view) spans 2 monitors now - so naturally everything is stretched etc.
I wasn't able to move these views.
How can I do it - so that the above main view is on just one monitor - so that I can move my other popped windows to the second monitor.
Thanks.

Re: Moved monitors and now all views jacked up
You can undock windows through the context menu. Once these are undocked you can move them to different screens. If you are using full screen the main window cannot be moved. Does exiting full screen, moving the main display, and then entering full screen again solve your problem?
