Default Screen resolution trouble

Hi,

Running SH4 on my native resolution of 2560x1440, i have trouble with my chrono and gramophone not showing up when asked.

My mods are TMOwtw 2.5 + wtw 2.5 Max Optics with Crosshair + Bigger Better Protractors

On 1920x1080 they are showing fine, but with my native reso, they are hidden somewhere too far...

I solved my chrono trouble by editing the menu_1024_768 file, changing the Pos and Zone values for chrono same as vanilla game (as it was showing fine at 2560 reso).
But i’m Stocked with gramophone as TMOwtw doesn’t have the vanilla gramophone.
In fact, in TMOwtw, we don’t see the usual gramophone picture as vanilla, but only the buttons (play/stop/next/previous) that are part of the bottom of a convoy route chart...

So how can i do to find this chart in the menu_1024_768 file, and bring it back on my screen?

ÉDIT: never mind, i found the chart in the menu file and applied same tactic as for chrono...works all fine now at 2560x1440

1. I dont bother with gramphone or anything nbo to do with mission.

2. I am on 1980 x 1020 without any vid tweaks, works fine. My monitor is an ASUS VX 278Q and native res is same, no problems
