TC8.0ß2x32/x64 - quicksearch window position

[Samuel]

In TC 8 (32 and 64 bit version) the quicksearch window position seems to be moved from a fixed position. (around x:240 y:70) to the position where it is used each time it is shown.

This results in a racing condition for my QuickSearch eXtended plugin which shows an additional user interface. (Image)

Previous versions of TC didn't had such behavior. Could you please change this?

Unfortunately I don't understand what you mean. I just tried it with TC 7.56a and 8.0, and I cannot see any visual difference. Can you explain mor in detail where there is a difference, please?

TC itself does not show something wrong.

In QSx I do the following:
a) start the additional user interface program when the QSx is used for the first time from within TC
b) check every 100 ms if TC is closed > end the additional user interface program
c) check every 100 ms if TCs quicksearch window is there > show the additional user interface next to it

In (c) I determine the position of the additional user interface from TCs quicksearch window (what temporary is located somewhere different. (but not yet shown)).

Hope this is clear. It could only be reproduced rarely.

Hmm, sounds like the window is created at some default position, then moved to the right location, and showed. Maybe you can check whether the window is visible before showing your own?

I will check that. Just wondered if there was an accidental change.

Fixed it in my code now.
