Yes I did. I thought I was posting to the beta tester list and not the LUG
list. It was my mistake.

question



I’ve tried those changes to the settings in the past; Legacy continues to
spring back. In playing around with resizing the Legacy window again this
afternoon, I noticed this strange behavior. I would click on one edge of
the Legacy window and then attempt to drag that edge to a new larger
window, for example changing from ¼ screen to ½ screen. But I would drag
very slowly. After about 3 seconds of dragging and WITHOUT me releasing the
mouse button, the Legacy window would automatically spring back to its
previous position. It’s as if there is a time limit to resize the Legacy
window.



I did find a workaround for the springy resizing problem. For example,
let’s assume that the Legacy window was approximately ¼ screen and I wanted
to make it ½ screen, occupying the complete left half of the screen. After
repositioning the window into the top left corner of the screen and then
dragging the lower edge of the window down towards the bottom of the
screen, this is where the spring-back to its previous position behavior
starts. But if I only drag the lower edge down only about 1 or 2 inches and
release instead of all the way down in one attempt, then things work
normally. It may take 4 or 5 mouse drags to finally get the window to
occupy the desired ½ screen. So not only is there a time limit for resizing
but also a finite limit on the amount of resizing. Strange. I think I’ll
check other applications to see if I can find a similar behavior.

Trouble with Legacy & resize windows.

I posted this back about March.  You might try it.

Microsoft in all their wisdom. created "Snap Assist" to auto arrange
windows.

Try adjusting your Windows from auto snapping your windows.  If you don't
like this just redo these steps.

Windows 10  =To disable Snap Assist launch the Settings app from your Start
Menu. From the Settings window, click System. Find & click Multitasking in
the column on the left. Under the “Snap” category on the right set choices
to Off. This will disable Snap Assist in Windows 10.

Windows 7 = to stop window snapping. Open up your Control Panel, and then
go to the Ease of Access center. From there, click on “Make the mouse
easier to use”… And then remove the checkbox for “Prevent windows from
being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen”, and
then click the Apply button to actually save the setting

I have Windows 10 and find this problem occurs intermittently with a number
of programs/apps including Outlook, so for me it is not just a Legacy
problem.



To the lady who talked about using M8 Free Clipboard: would you mind
explaining in more detail how you use the program for sourcing. I thought
my system was working well, but now realize that I could do a lot better if
I tried the clipboard.



Thanks,

Elizabeth

I recall that annoyance with resizing the Legacy window as having been
around since at least Legacy version 7. I typically use a split screen mode
with Legacy taking up ½ and a browser window on the other half. But
whenever I have to resize the Legacy window, it takes several mouse
attempts with it just springing back to its original size. In other words,
the resizing attempt does not stick until the 3rd or 4th attempt. Certainly
not life threatening but merely annoying. Legacy is the only application
that exhibits this behavior. It has nothing to do with Windows 10.

I've noticed when resizing Legacy with the mouse on the edge if I hold the
mouse button down after I stop sliding up or down it jumps back to the
original size. I have to release the button as soon as I stop sliding the
mouse.



I just checked my laptop and it resizes OK. I can resize and hold the
button and it stays there. Both are Win 10.



The desktop computer resizes other programs fine, Only Legacy exhibits this
problem.

Under Windows 10, when ones tries to go to a smaller window, the process is
not fluid as it is with other programs.

There is a time delay and the passage from one level to the other goes by
step.

It is the same thing with both v8 and v9.



There seems to be a sort of incompatibility between Windows 10 and Legacy.



Am I the only one to see this problem?
