Thanks--we tried to fix a related issue in build 3051 but the fix was obviously incomplete ;-)

Hi Rusty,

FYI: The window resize issue is back in 3051 (#2 Dialog boxes for properties, Add/rescan files opens bigger than my screen and won't resize)

Thanks,

Hi Rusty,

Yes, the windows now fit, worked in 3044 and works in 3045, thanks!

Thanks!

Hi kermaco,

There are a number of issues in this thread and I just want to confirm the status:

1 - Drag and drop from Windows 11 doesn't work after the first time, have to close and reopen MM5.
This should be (mostly) resolved. Drag and drop into NP still won't work if the NP list is sorted by an attribute other than Play order, but that's probably not fixable.

2 - Dialog boxes for properties, Add/rescan files opens bigger than my screen and won't resize
We've just fixed (in build 3044 which isn't yet released) the following related issue:

Can you confirm whether the bug persists in build 3044 (once it's released)?

3 - Organize files comes up with a blank list in the dialog, even if I have files selected
Should be fixed at https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=20691 . Can you confirm?

Thanks!

Re: Can't resize MM 2024 window vertical size

Thanks for the quick response.

Yes, this has been happening for quite while in earlier builds too and MM5. I mentioned it before in a previous post, and was hoping it would be resolved as you got closer to RC timeframe.

I turned off 2 of the monitors to be in a single monitor mode. In the the one monitor setting, I have to shift rt click on the MM icon in the taskbar and choose "move" from the menu to move the window if it's not on the screen, if I shift rt click on the MM icon in the taskbar and choose "size", the window disappears completely when I put the move cursor on the left side of the window. I have to use the shift rt click on the MM icon in the taskbar select "move" to bring the MM window back to the screen.

I realize that most people are going to use MM on a single monitor laptop, but you might want to look into why it's happening on a multi monitor system. Let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks again,

This seems to be a bit unique to your (multi-monitor) setup, I can resize my non-maximised window in all directions in Windows 11 on an HP laptop.

Whagt happens when you switch to a single monitor display??

Did this work fine with recent builds prior to 3043?? Normally you can install recent older builds directly over your latest, or install them as portable leaving your existing installation unchanged

Can't resize MM 2024 window vertical size

Hi,

I am on 2024.0.0.3043 RC1 and, and in non maximized mode, in Windows 11, I can't resize the MM window left to right, the edges and corners will not let me do it. I can resize up and down, but not left to right. tried from both left and right edges and all 4 corners. I have a three 4K monitor setup and in restore mode, MM spans 2 monitors. In maximized form it fits into one monitor. Also, the properties window and other windows have the same issue.

I am using a customized version of the Material Design skin, but even when I switch to the default Material Design skin, I have the same issue, also same with other skins.

System>Display Settings>Scale and Layout>Scale is set to 150% (Recommended)

Anything I can do to be able to resize these windows?

I have MM5 5.0.4.2693 and the left/right resize of the main MM is not functioning. Resizing top and bottom works. I renamed persistent.json and now I am back to the default orange skin and settings but still no left/right resize.

Ludek, On issue 2, it would be difficult to attach a screenshot because the dialog box spans 2 of my 3 screens. The window maximizes into one screen and that's my workaround, but if I am in floating window mode, it spans two screens and I can't resize the windows because the resize from the edges does not work.

OK, but I mean the issue 2 - Dialog boxes for properties, Add/rescan files opens bigger than my screen and won't resize
I guess this must be the same regardless the used beta version?
Could you attach a screenshot?

Curious, and does reverting to 5.1.0.2832 Beta really help?

Yep, this will be fixed in the next beta.. Workaround is to select the files in filelisting > right-click > Organize file..
This is exactly what is NOT working for me using 3003, when I am in say "All Tracks" window

Strangely enough, it does works from a "Results of a search" window.
