Can anyone help me move the compass overlay in TDW's UI with the editor (or any other method)? The compass overlay is a draggable item, but doesn't stay where you leave it after you exit the game, like other items such as the Captain's Log, etc.
If you are unsure which item I am referring to, please check Fifi's link from another thread - http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=475098CO2.jpg - for an example (Thanks Fifi). You can see the compass overlay hidden behind all those icons in the upper right side. Getting your mouse into the correct spot to drag it onto the map without activating one of the buttons or inadvertently swapping out to the desktop is a bit of a pain sometimes, so moving it down to empty real estate would allow easier access to it. I'd like to move it down to the open space in the lower right side near the "39 degrees N" line in the picture, or to the upper bar above the "4 degrees E" line.
I have managed to move objects in the past with the editor, but because this item is in four parts, it's difficult to move each part separately and without losing the alignment of the overlay. I also slowly moved all four parts together using the down arrow key after highlighting the entire group in the editor's left bar, but the editor didn't recognize any change, so the Save button stayed grey. I also tried to manually edit "Page navigation map" to no avail.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks ...
