Subject: Floating windows float away...
Message #158343
I am relatively new with OSX, so this could be something I have just missed, but: if I have any floating windows open in a song (transport, CPU usage, extended sequence parameters etc), the windows move a little bit up every time I change screensets. For example, if I have these windows open in screenset 1, then press 2 and 1 again, the windows have moved a little. After working a while with a song, they are all around the screen. Really annoying.. :/ Non-floating windows do not suffer from this, also all windows that "touch" the top of the screen seem to stay where they are. Any ideas? I don't think "floating windows" was supposed to mean exactly this? :) (Logic 6.3.1 & latest OSX) -- --- Markus "Captain" Kaarlonen ---- Senior Web Developer & Audio Producer ----- captain@... / www.futuremark.com

I have the same problem here with Logic 6.3.3 and latest OSX. But my transport moves to the left. Peter --- http://www.merlinsound.de

Happens here too. I like to open my Track Mixer windows floating. I've found it may happen on reopening a song too. I first noticed this sometime in 5.x on OS X (I think it only occurs on OS X), and filed a bug report, with the usual (non) response. I suspect this is perhaps occurring because float windows still use some OS 9 code for getting or setting window position, but the height of the title bar is smaller in OS X, and there are no window borders. The amount they move seems to be approximately equivalent to the difference. It would be nice if this very minor bug got some attention, it's probably just a matter of changing two constants in the code. It would also be very nice if we could once again open a window floating by simply adding [option] to the standard key command, ie command-option-M for a floating Track Mixer - this stopped working sometime in 4.x I think.

All good suggestions. Another thing that doesn't work in OSX is the Windowshade function, on floating windows. (I use the Windowshade haxie from Unsanity which restores the old OS9 windowshade function.) I don't know if this is Logic code or OSX code that prevents this..... Regards - Colin
