Maximizing & Docking (like we already had)

Neptun_2000 · 9th August 2002, 17:10

Hi,

1) let's assume the main window is minimized and docked to the taskbar and you double click to restore the whole window...
* in ver 2.x the window maximizes and jumps up to show it's content. And when minimized jumps back again.

* in ver 3.0 the window maximizes but laps over the screen-border. In order to see everything you have to move the window manually

2) Open the EQ and dock it to the main window, close the EQ and move the main window. open the EQ again:
* in ver 2.x it stays docked & only moves up or down (if nessecary) to show it's contents.

* in ver 3.x the EQ-window stays in it's last position.

So, could you please re-implement the old behaviour?! Thank you very much.

bye,
Ralf.

Yes, bring the old docking behaviour back.

Okay, in regards to the way it docks, in Winamp 2.x, I had only the main window and the playlist open, but shaded, and docked side by side on the bottom of my screen. When I unshaded them, they would raise up from the bottom of the screen, towards the top. Now, in Winamp3, it unshades down, off screen, so I can't dock it on the bottom if I want to see anything. I realize someone is going to say that I could always dock it on top, but that interferes with title-bars (I have it on AOT); on top of that, I have my taskbar as an AOT Auto-hide, with three layers, so it interferes with my taskbar functionality. I really want to see this added, because until then, Winamp3 degrades my efficiency in usage by quite a bit, and I will probably continue to use 2.80 until that's fixed. Also, I really love the Opascity feature, but when the playlist window is shaded, it has no menu for opascity or scaling. I would also like to see a shading option for the media library, so I can maintain usage of it without it getting in the way. Thank you.

I had it configured the same way, on top of the taskbar. Please change the docking behavior!
