I designed a mach3 screen with screen4 on one PC and it displays fine on that PC.

I copied the background.jpg image used in that screen and the customscreen.set file to the actual machine I use mach3 on, over my network. The .set file is in the mach3 folder and the background.jpg is in a folder under the mach3/bitmap folder.

I open the custom screen on the mach3 pc and it's all messed up. Hard to describe but it looks like the screen is split in the middle and there are two sets of buttons on the screen. Nothing is in the proper location.

It looks fine on the design PC but not right on the actual machine PC.

What should I look for to correct this. Not sure where to go from here.
Thanks

The first thing I would suspect is that the background.jpg is not in the exact same directory path.

If you are sure that is correct then the next thing would be the Mach version you are using.

I have had a version, as I update to the latest usually, that did a similar thing and when I went back to a previous version all was OK.

So if you're not on the latest lock down version already, then try that.

And if you are already, try stepping back a version or two.
