Unstable version opens minimized

[frliss]

Hi all,

I've been using the unstable version of OR for quite a while now. For the last few downloads OR starts up fine. It displays the load screen but then instead of showing the cab view it immediately minimizes. Clicking on the minimized icon on the task bar restores the program. After that everything runs fine.

When using the testing version everything runs the way it is supposed to.

I am running version U2019.12.10-1721. I first notices the problem on version U2019.12.03-0936. Also I have Windows 7.

I would appreciate any help.

I have 2 win7 machines and both are working as normal with 1721?

Same with my Win10 system. My guess is there is something in the registry that causes it to open minimized to the taskbar.

Charles,

Try version U2019.12.03-0936. Its the last one that worked properly for me. See If you get the same results.

It can be found at https://james-ross.co.uk/projects/or/builds

For now I have set my updater for no updates.

My fault, I'm afraid, guys.

I provided a fix so that Ctrl+9 opens the Dispatch Window in the front rather than behind the graphics window.

That works just fine on my multi-screen desktop PC, but apparently not for a single-screen PC running the Monogame version.

Carlo has reverted this in the Monogame version so that it's no longer a problem and I'm looking around for a solution.
