Adjust position of gaze point?
One day into using my new hololens and seems comfortable to wear which I'm happy about.
But my eyes are get tired of looking up to see the gaze point. It's like putting my computer monitor up on a shelf and having to move my eyes up to use it.
I tried setting the hololens lower on my nose but then the top of the viewable area is shadowed out (like something is blocking it's view)
I also tried re-running calibration and purposefully putting my finger too low, but that had no effect.
Do other people feel like they are looking up at the brim of a hat while using the focus point? Any advice?
Thanks!

No, that doesn't sound right. The gaze should be directly where you are facing. It sounds as though it should be tilted downward slightly.

After that first try, I've learned to move the screen and gaze point down by adjusting where I wear the hololens, but more than I think it was intended. Instead of having it lay horizontal, I have the back raised up further on my head. Floating 2D windows that aren't attached to a surface (like the start menu) are not flat anymore but kinda tipped back. (really the only noticeable thing, everything else displays with no issues)
Sounds like that's just part of getting a personal fit for it. Wasn't sure if there was any software/setting adjustment though.
