Quual Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 Ran into an annoying problem, the snippet holder will not work correctly. It will not dock to either side If I highlight some code, use the drop down menu, or right click on the snippet window to add a new snippet, the main window moves over to the right side but the snippets edit pane never shows up, the holder believes the window is actually there and visible, but i can't see it and the AutoIt Window Info Tool doesn't see it either. Same thing happens if I try and open a snippet. I looked through the code for a bit This window is the problem -> $GUI_Edit = GUICreate("Source Code View/Edit Snippet", 622, 506, -1, -1, $WS_CAPTION, -1, $main_GUI) When the snippet holder starts up the window is set to hidden, and as far as I can see this code should bring it into sight. Func _ShowPreview(ByRef $GUI_Edit, ByRef $DockItPos, ByRef $Dock, $show = 1) If $show Then If $DockItPos Then _WinAnimate ($GUI_Edit, $AW_SLIDE_IN_RIGHT, 200) Else _WinAnimate ($GUI_Edit, $AW_SLIDE_IN_LEFT, 200) EndIf GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI_Edit) But it doesn't ever. Things I have tried, Reinstalled Autoit, Reinstalled SciTE4AutoIt uninstalled both and removed all files left in the directory's. then reinstalled both again. Still will not work. I saved my snippet.ini file and snips folder so I can restore them if I can ever get it working again. I had 100+ snips in it, and referenced them often. I miss the bloody thing. Anyone have any ideas ?
Quual Posted April 7, 2009 Author Posted April 7, 2009 You can mark this issue closed, I figured it out. It was due to nVidia's nView application advanced window features for multi-monitor use. I use it to add 2 buttons next to min-restore-max on every title bar for 'send to next monitor' and 'collapse to titlebar'. I also set a number of options, open child windows on same monitor as parent, prevent windows from opening offscreen, make windows min. and max. faster, and allow window to span monitors. I simply added a custom application rule in nView for csnippet.exe and disabled all the advanced features. Didn't dawn on me till after a bunch of frustration, that the problems started happening shortly after I updated the nVidia driver to Forceware 180.84.
