Hi all,

Today i tried out the game Oni demo version.
I placed the " Items for Extension Folder " from oni as directed from the instructions into my Systems Folder - Extension Folder.

After I run the game, The control strip shifted from the bottom of the desktop to somewhere near the middle of the desktop.
It is very irritating as i am unable to shift the constrol strip back to the bottom of the desktop.

Can anyone tell me how to do it ??

Thanks, your help is greatly needed as i like to use the control strip and it is irritating stuck in the middle of the screen.

Ethan

Hold down the option key and drag it by the end - you can move it up or down, or across to the other side of the screen.

try "Extension Strip" this Conrol Strip substitute (which is 100 times better) usually goes back to the correct position. And get one of those little applications that remembers the position of the icons on your desktop, Desktop Resetter or Desktop Icon Manager. All available by searching at www.versiontracker.com

Is there a way to make the control strip vertical rather than horizontal?
