Hi, i'm using version 5.10.45, which is the version recommended by WCG. A problem that has been occuring for the past few releases (5.10.x anyway) is the WCG Bionc Client window resetting it's size after a system reboot. Being a developer and having a multi-boot setup, it is irritating to have to keep dragging the window out to see the processes properly. Is there anyway that the application can save it's form size settings upon exit? Cheers Steven |

Is there anyway that the application can save it's form size settings upon exit? if you can find one, tell us. ;-) This bug has been around for ages now. It's to be fixed in a future version... we just don't know when. Although it does help for a bit to: Open BM to full size. Use X to park it in the system tray. Right click icon->Exit. Start->Programs->BOINC->BOINC Manager will start it correctly sized. |

...Never understood why on BOINC... It's not a BOINC thing, it's a windows thing. It's the same with (all?) other programs too. Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben. (Kleiner Scherz) ![]() |

how odd, that in all those years I've been using woz it's only BOINC and one other old from W98 days dated program that do this. Okay, I have to admit that I didn't check that many progs on XP (there at least notepad now keeps position), but with NT4 (which I still use :-) and earlier, even microsoft applications don't remember. |
