IRIS 5.58 Tips

Part1 : The launch : Dual screen, windows not appearing issue : how to find iris.ini

This is part one, of a group of messages. I just wanted to make a statement on how IRIS work when I use it via Crossover on my mac. Of course not all functionnalities are used, but this is a classical use. We'll see what works well, what doesn't work.

Part 1 : The launch

This a very few issues in this part. Except this : if, like me, you sometimes uses double screen option,  IRIS seems unable to cope with a one-screen-only situation any more. It doesn't crashes, but some (sometimes all) windows doesn't appears any more. The solution found on the net is to destroy the IRIS.ini file.

-> the trick : 
in crossover, select "manage Bottles", then in "advanced" tab select "Open C: drive in finder"
in the opening finder window, you can open driver_c directory, then iris. There you'll find iris.ini

a destruction of this file, then restart of iris, will make all the standard iris windows come back on the single screen.

(to be continued...)
