I'm new with Desktop Info. I've spent the morning with the manual educating myself on how to make it work. I've been able to do most of what I want, one of the bigger items I havent figured out yet; when positioning the page of information top and right, text is cut off to the right. What entry do I need in the desktop.ini to keep all the information visible on the screen. Thanks for any tips and advice.

The goal is to keep the page snugged up against the right side regardless of how long some of the dynamic content will be.

at some point the information may be bigger than the available space, in which case it will be truncated. You can align an item left or right and this will cause the information to be truncated on one side or the other. If you're looking for a wrap function, there isn't one.

Understood. The page is static, and cant be made dynamic. Another thing I haven't figured out in playing around is what command moves the page horizontally. [options] right= doesnt seem to have an effect.
