Lister windows dimension fixed

Post by *damjang »

When I install the new version of TC 9.20 the behaviour when opening lister windows change. Now every lister window open positioned on the right half of the screen of first monitor and with full dimension (full right half-side of the monitor). No matter if I change the dimension, every new lister window open with this dimension/position.
Please if possible check to have the previous version behaviour.

PS: tc 5.20x32 on win10x64 with 2 monitors

The previous behaviour left the position up to Windows. This is no longer possible because I had to set the style WS_POPUP, and Windows doesn't assign a random position then.

Just move the window where you want it and choose "Save position" from the Lister menu.

The save position option in Lister has been there at least since Windows Commander v. 1.12e from january 1st. 1994 ;-)

The previous behavior served me better. I was looking for a fix 'coz I thought maybe I did something wrong to the settings. :(
When opening several txt file, the random position had the advantage of recognizing and selecting each window more easily too.
I hope you have plan to change it back and leave it to Windows again. :)
Thanks

I added this because of the tabbed interface introduced by a beta version of Windows 10, which caused a lot of problems. However, Microsoft has removed that tabbed interface in the final release. But they still seem to have the intention to reintroduce it later...
