Probably everyone already knows this option of the VT View/GaugeGroups Editor.
I just discovered it myself as the possible solution for the issue of the Gauges of some view (eg. LogViewer) being sometimes pilled up on the right top corner of the screen (I use a 10"one).
I got crazy with this erratic "bug". I used to work with several VT as back up to restore the view via the option "Préférences" (copying the .ini did not work ?). However it happens sometimes that the back up where "optimized" as well .... ;-(
For now on I say YES at the option "Do not use "minimum corner" optimization". This seems to work (I cross fingers)
