pcsoft.us.windevCopyright 2026, PC SOFT12 Oct 2016 10:10:00 Z10 Oct 2016 11:38:00 ZHi all I just HATE:sneg: the way how in Windev a new code edit window always conquers nearly the whole display! No matter how big a display I use, the new edit window conquers it. Why am I whining about a "little thing" like this? Because it wastes an enormous amount of my time. I haven't counted, but I probably open a code window hundreds of times a day. Often, most of the time actually, I want to keep open two or more code windows, to compare or copy the code. And each and every time I open a code window, I have to adjust the new code window's size so that I can fit two or mode windows to be visible simultaneously in the display: - rezise from one corner - resize from another corner - move the window to an empty place That's up to three unnecessary clicks I have to do each time I open a window. Certainly not ten times faster that it could be! And my old right hand elbow really doesn't like it! I would really appreciate, if WD remembered the current size and place of the last opened window, and would place the next new code window as well as possible next to it to an empty place, and in same size. Now wouldn't that be nice? Or outright excellent? And just imagine, how many new features it would generate in the next sales brochure! - automatic remembering in three different WX products - automatic resizing in three different WX products - automatic placing in three different WX products That's at least 9 new features, all improving efficiency in coding and making Windev many times faster! And prolonging the service life of WD users' mouse hand's elbow and wrist! Of course I understand that this might be too difficult for PCSoft, and not nearly as much fun nor glamorous as photographing nice chicks in the warehouse on top of big WX boxes for the next sales brochure!:rp: What do you think?
