Re: Can't resize MM 2024 window vertical size

Post by Rob_S »

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

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,
rusty

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:
https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=21141
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!

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,
rusty

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