Hidden info on smaller screen

Hello,
Hopefully the above image is viewable. I am playing on a small 10.1 inch display and although I have been very happy with it so far the information on the right is now getting to far down out of view. Therefore I am unable to see what is in the logistic network and if there is any other important info there?
Is there a way to move this window to another part of the screen or another way to view what I cannot see?

Thanks

There's a logistic network overview in 0.15: viewtopic.php?f=38&t=42204&start=40#p247190
For now you can try my Minimap autohide mod that will remove the minimap while you have a logistics chest selected to have more space.

nice, that deserved 1 paragraph in FFF :D

just note, while OP complaining having this issue on small display, even with 1920x1200 you can't see much from logistic storage so yes, that improvement for 0.15 is welcome.

Dear Daniel,

Your mod is great, thank you.

I wish it would also auto-hide the minimap when viewing other stuff besides chests. Any information on factories, roboborts, etc. are hidden bellow, and your mod would help a lot.

My best.

I've found that this option helps to solve my problem.

I've set mine to 80% and now I can read the bottom of the info window.

I hope this helps you.
