Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Small Bug with WinAmp(2.72)

Hi,

I went travelling last week and I had WinAmp opened in Monitor 2 before leaving.

On opening my laptop once arrived, having only one monitor, launching WA I could see the animation sending it to it's original position (off screen!) and I couldn't use the Ctrl key combo to bring it back...

I was still able to operate it by right clicking on the taskbar and choosing reduced command set in the context menu.

One other thing, on coming back, my desktop Icons were sent to the secondary monitor at the same position that they usually occupy on monitor 1?

Did you use an UltraMon Shortcut to launch Winamp on monitor 2?

Regarding the icons: please let me know how you have arranged your monitors, and if monitor 1 is the primary monitor.

Thanks,

Hi there!

I've had the same problem; the solution is
simple if you didn't use the multimon shortcut
option: open the winamp.ini file and search for
something like wm_x=... on the dots you'll find
a screen coordinate larger than your desktop,
change that and find the same sort of coordinates
for the equaliser and playlist window. Make
sure that you're not currently running Winamp
cause it saves coordinates on exit...

In WA you have an option for multimon and litestep desktop :

'multi-monitor and litestep VWM Compatible mode'
in winamp prefs > Options

this option save the position of winamp on your second monitor and you don't need to edit anything ...

I've got another issue with WinAmp. When I use WinAmp I have the Main window, the Equalizer, and the Playlist components all open. My problem is that when using my "Move window to next monitor" keyboard hotkey on WinAmp only the WinAmp component with focus is moved. For example if I last selected a song from the playlist then ONLY the playlist is moved to the other monitor and the Equalizer and Main Window are left behind...
=(

I don't know if this is something UltraMon can handle do to the modular nature of WinAmp but I would sure love your input!

Would there be any way to have UltraMon detect if the WinAmp component with focus is "snapped" to another component and then take all the "snapped" items together?

By the way, Thanks for all your hard work, you rock!!! (UltraMon is amazing!)

This could be implemented with a new hotkey which moves all windows of the foreground application instead of only the foreground window. I'll consider that for one of the next releases.
