[Bug 1832939] Re: Need to select a display when first run of app

 

This issue has been verified to happen on a clean install of trunk 2892

The way around it is to click on the screen in the FTW but do not check the box to use the display.  You will get some errors as the FTW completes...ignore them!  Once Openlp finishes loading, move the OpenLP window to the right of the screen...then go into settings and ensure the 'use this display' check box is checked and select the 'custom geometry' button.  Set the width and height to a percentage of the full screen size...for me that is 1024 and 768. Now check the 'Display if single screen' box.
Exit setting and restart OpenLP.  When the logo screen covers most of the screen, select a theme then select the live display in the Service.  Press the 'd' key and the logo screen will close.
At this point you can use OpenLP...to see the 'live' display just press the 'd' key or use the Blank ICON under the Live Preview.

Title:
  Need to select a display when first run of app

Status in OpenLP:
  New

Bug description:
  Windows 10 32 bit
  Revision 2880 of trunk
  run command: Python run_openlp.py

  The display is not initialized until you go into settings and select the display then reboot.
  There is an error that comes up that says something to the affect that the Live Display is disabled because there is no display.  Once you go into settings and choose the display and reboot the error is no longer displayed on startup.

  If you are on a single display PC the logo screen appears and you will
  have to close the program by keystrokes as you can not get back to the
  app.
