Re: Hurricane Ian

Glad I'm in Florida. We expect mid to upper 40's here (Orlando and westward toward the Gulf).

Have the typical heater elements in the AC air handler but have never turned them on since I replaced the AC 5 years ago :D

Re: Windows 11 and Multimonitor Issue

Excellent advice! Thank you johngalt! The only part I couldn't do was to change settings for all users. My company doesn't give me admin rights. :( So far, sliding between displays keeps the x2 window the same apparent size and readable. I'll update this once I run the Surface Pro in stand alone mod...

Re: Windows 11 and Multimonitor Issue

As I said before, no, setting fonts doesn't fix the problems. Once I set fonts using TOOLS > OPTIONS > WINDOW > Main Font... with the x2 window on the HP monitor: Sliding the x2 window from either external HP monitor display at 1920x1080 at 100% scaling to the local monitor on the Surface 8, at 2880...

Re: Windows 11 and Multimonitor Issue

Changing from Surface Pro 7 to Surface Pro 8 is "massively different"? All the other monitors stayed the same. Is this a monitor configuration issue or a Windows 11 issue? So you are saying there's no way for X2 to correct this disconnect between the monitor configuration and how x2 manage...

Re: Windows 11 and Multimonitor Issue

Yes of course I imported settings via the REG file option. Also, I have to have two separate column sets to view just a standard set of columns (name, size, modified, ext) after start-up or switching monitors, as the column widths get scrambled. What is the procedure that needs to be followed during...

Re: Hurricane Ian

We were at the art festival in Cape Coral 2 weeks ago. Talked to many people that are still in shock over the devastation. Some people at the hotel we were at were there because they lost their homes and had nowhere else to go. Very sad situation. Will take many years to recover, and some never will...

Windows 11 and Multimonitor Issue

After a forced PC "upgrade" from MS Surface Pro 7 and Windows 10 to Surface Pro 8 and Windows 11 Pro for Workstations, running X2 5.3.0.1 ULT x64, there appears to be some challenges with handling scaling differences on different displays, either when attached or handling the change when t...

Re: new version under way

I like the XTree (now ZTreeWin) concept of navigating in a tree then REPLACING the tree with the file list. I think the tree is useful for navigation but a waste of space when you are looking at a list of files. Switching it on/off is just unnecessary user effort, so why can't it be done automatica...

Re: new version under way

no that was a honest attempt to publicize K's work, but I noticed that when YOU had to do something about it you immediately bailed out ;) (Drawn back into this fruitless conversation against my better judgement ...) Not an employee, don't get royalties, etc. I have a VERY full-time job so there's ...

that would be an insult to kilmatead's legacy ;) what I should do is perhaps write a blog post about these useful plugins so that people outside this forum will know about them ... only problem is that I don't use any of them, so perhaps PJ who had the idea, should write them up?

Re: new version under way

if kilmatead's plugins work, why reinvent the wheel? I was thinking about new features or improvements "...help new users of X2 to immediately gain the benefits of these extensions without needing to dig through years of forum entries..." I guess I'm assuming you have an interest in growi...

Re: new version under way

There have been extensions and work-arounds created by users over the decades that could make for useful extensions to the X2 base code. This would help new users of X2 to immediately gain the benefits of these extensions without needing to dig through years of forum entries, try, fail and try again...
