Hello Rajat



Sorry.
You know, when I was typing your nick I did think that it didn't look quite right, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was.

Besides...

I didn't think you was looking.

Perhaps you try this and report if there are any improvements.

You are right, it is more noticeable ie slows down the animation... but, thats not the problem. In fact the problem isn't even a problem.

After more experimenting I've found out this:

1:- If aways on top is off (which was the default setting), clicking on a window below Scriptlet Library brings that window to the front, Scriptlet Library disappears briefly then appears as a bar. (If a window is half covering Scriptlet Library, you can see that it animates below that window.) With the bar appearing on top of the active window, I would assume that always on top was on and that you would see the animation! Hence the problem/nonproblem.

2:- If aways on top is on, we have visual animation!! (and the sunken edit fields! Could that be caused by using non MS themes?)

Even with the results of your experiments I can't reproduce "sunken edit fields".

Hi there,

Thank you both for evaluating this script.

Next release will have an option to choose between vertical/horizontal rollup bar.

I can't reproduce the sunken behavior, it might be due to your theme.

As for the animation, I could set the gui to AOT during animation, would you like to have that?

I don't even know what AOT is.

Sorry, AOT = AlwaysOnTop, might be my own abbreviation.

Hello toralf


That will be nice. Would it be possible to have the vertical bar move to the left hand side (preferably centre left) of the screen either before or after rolling up, then on roll down, go back to it's last position?

Could you also add an option to hide the tray icon?

Thanks


Out of curiosity, I loaded the default XP theme and had the same result. So far though, it does seem to be specific to my PC.


If you mean, when you have "Auto-Roll-Up when not active" checked make "aways on top" on by default, then yes that would be a good idea.



Always On Top

Thanks for the AOT-explanation.
It's all the same for me to have this property or not. I think that this is not a (life-changing-) difference.

This version 4 posted doesn't work on my system.
I'm getting an error
call to non existent function
line 659
"Anchor("EdtGroupName" , " w0.5 ")"

Does this still work for anyone?

Hi,
You need to download the anchor script from titan and place it correctly relative to the scripletlib, please see script. Please report any issue you encounter. Thanks.

Sorry to say it didn't work. Manually renaming anchor also didn't work. Perhaps because I don't keep this in the default directory, or AHK isn't installed.
Anyway I had a copy of the original scriptlet library at work, works fine.

To Keybored: Same thing here... I took out the ../Anchor/ part of the include path and just placed the anchor script into the program's dir and it worked.

To Maker: You should update this into xml using Titan's XML Reader and Titan's XML Writer
