Why are there no breeding (or any other) notes for the last five columns on the chart?

I've been using the VST to fill in my breeding gaps and noticed that the notes stop for those last columns.

Thanks!

does anyone else have this problem?

pictishgirl, can you take a screen shot of your chart and post it here?

Borg, I feel kinda dumb, but how do I take a screenshot?

You can see a tutorial for screen shots here.

Attached is a jpeg of my chart. As I move the cursor over the cells, the information just stops when I get to the Tigerfern column.

There have now been 7 downloads of my chart.

Am I the only one who has the problem of no information for the last 5 columns?

Maybe I need to download VST again?

I assume that you're missing the information that appears at the bottom of the chart screen (the name and tier of the plant, whether or not you've bred it, and some breeding info). I am using LDW's version of Plant Tycoon (as you'd expect ), and I am not missing any of that information for any column or row in the chart (except breeding information does not appear for cells where I currently have seeds in my inventory.

Yes, that is what I am missing - only in those last 5 columns to the right. The info displays at the bottom for the other columns and then when I get to the far right 5 columns, nothing appears at the bottom at all.

I got my PT game from Big Fish (had game credits to spend). There are no problems with the game.

Any ideas, Borg?

VST works properly with BFGs version of PT so that is not it.

I looked at your picture and it looks very different from what it looks like on my system.

What system are you running it on?

This is what my picture looks like and in the example I clicked on something in the last 5 columns:




This one is a head scratcher

My computer info:

Micro. Win XP, Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 2

I've got a Dell Dim. 2400, Pentium 4 CPU, 2.66 Ghz, 620 MB of RAM

Maybe the problem is a display setting? Just guessing. I'm going to troubleshoot those settings and see if maybe it is a mouse/display problem.

also scratching my head...

Mine works like a charm - all full to last square!

I used the compatibility wizard and discovered that with 640 x 480 screen resolution, all the information shows up.

However, it flickers so much at that setting that I'll have a migraine or seizure in very short order!

Suggestions, anyone?

I'm going to try other settings to see if I can get it to still work without driving me nuts with flickering.

pictishgirl

I think it might help me to know what screen resolutions and display settings other people are using successfully.

Could some of you please post that info for me?

thanks in advance,
pictishgirl

I am using 1021 x768 screen resolution
on a Dell E 773c with Intl R 82865G Graphics Controller
I don't have a problem with VST or CG

I have a 600 x 400 screen resolution and I can't see the VST's chart entirely! so each time I need I change the resolution to 1152 x 864 (it's the Borg's screen resolution) just for looking at the chart and I go back to my original résolution!!! It's a kind of little everyday-gymnastic!!

Thanks. I'll see if I can use either of those without my screen flipping out.

When set at 1024 x 768 (my usual setting) I can see the whole chart, but have the problem with the last 5 columns.

Set at 1152 x 864, the screen is garbled, with three screens of info on top of each other, almost impossible to read.

still puzzled..., but obviously it is some problem with my display settings.

Upon further investigation, I found that all my breeding info is actually there, but it is shifted five columns to the left. So if I move the cursor far left, beyond the edge of the chart, my breeding info begins, but doesn't line up. I can use the chart now - I'm just scrolling across and writing down the information, while ignoring the misalignment.
