unsupported char in window title?

if a window title has | in it, it seems to throw winsize2. the part after the | becomes the x position or even an entry of its own.

Task manager

damjan cinkole — Sun, 14 Apr 2013 11:59:26 -0000

This software usually works great, however I have 1 problem: I cannot set Task manager to start maximized.
It is almost maximized and centered to the middle of the screen, but not completely.
Is there any way to solve this?

Window is unintendedly being taken to foreground

Sat, 15 Jan 2011 17:11:59 -0000

When using the X-Mouse-feature of Windows (that means: windows get the focus when hovering over them instead the need of clicking), it always takes the focused window to the foreground, which is not desired. (the X-Mouse feature can explicitely be configured the way that windows get the focus only but windows are _not_ taken to the foreground. This functionality is being broken by WinSize)

Note: X-Mouse can be enabled via Microsofts TweakUI. (current version 2.1 for WinXP)

Desktop icons and/or Taskbar disappear

jsherk — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 15:16:56 -0000

I am running Win XP Pro sp3 and have not had any problems until I tried to use WinSize2 with my magicJack. WinSize2 says that magicJack is a qWidget if that makes any difference.

v2.34 would not do anything at all with the magicJack window (would not hide it or minimize it or move it) but I upgraded to v 2.35.05 and here is what I have noticed:
#1 - If I set WinSize2 to startup when computer starts up, and I have the magicJack window set to 'hidden', then once the computer starts up all my desktop icons will disappear and even right-clicking on desktop does nothing.
#2 - If I manually start WinSize2 after computer has started up, it will not hide the magicJack window. If I click the minimize button on the magicJack window it will then go into hiding, but my Taskbar along the bottom will also disappear.

These issues only seem to happen with the magicJack window... I do not have problems with other windows.

Thanks

Stefan Pendl — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 14:47:18 -0000

Hello,

If the screen is set to use 120 DPI due to a resolution of 1920x1200 the dialog items are not displayed correctly.

Attached find some images.

Default hotkey is wrong

jsherk — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 16:54:49 -0000

Using version v2.30.01, the documentation states that the hotkey combination is CTRL+ALT+Z but on initial use it does not work and when you go to Extras-1 it is defined as CTRL+ALT+Y

Thanks

Windows are not resized

Stefan Pendl — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 08:40:12 -0000

Environment: Windows 7 x64 Edition, WinSize2 v2.32.04

I do have certain windows, which do not get resized after they are opened.
If I try to update the definition, then there is a new one created.

This has worked with v2.30

Attached find the configuration files.

If you need the applications to test, download them from http://www.justbasic.com/ (freeware) and http://www.libertybasic.com/ (shareware)

The debugging windows are giving me trouble.
