Initial size for Lister window

Post by *henniegl »

I often use the internal viewer to look at log files with pretty long lines. In TC 8.01 32 bit the lister opened in a pretty wide window. Yesterday I upgraded to 8.01 46 bit and the lister window now opens in a much narrower window so I have to resize every time I look at a file.

- The lister option "Display width" does not help, it only controls the number of characters on a line, not the window size.

- Closing the lister window with CTRL which apparently works for some Windows 7 apps does not work either.

Any idea how to set this initial window size?

Just use menu Options - Save position in Lister.

I use same TC (from usb stick) on many PC's with diffrent screen resolution. As I understand, window position is 75% length by both sides in x32 version.

But can't find out - what's x64 logics?

It is really better to show the same window size as in x32.

It just asks the system to display it in a default size...

could you set it to 75% by each size
OR
(better) add support of % for dx and dy positions ?
