Maximizer Issues

[jproffitt]

Hi all,

First off i am new to keyclone. I have had it for about 2 months now and have only dabbled with it a little. I am running 2 accounts atm and I am trying to get the screens set up vertically ( half and half ) of my monitor. When i open keyclone and start the 2 accounts, each instance of the game goes to the correct area it should be in. However, the game area itself doesnt fit completly inside the area i have delagated to each copy. For instance: I can see my characters in the middle of the screen just fine on both sides, but the bags are too far to the right and dont fit on my screen for either copy. So i guess the issue is the game isn't resizing itself to fit inside each partition of the screen. I would appreciate any help on this and thank you in advance for your time.

Try turning off Snap to Grid.

No unfortunatly that did not fix it. Here is some screen shots to show. btw, the snap to grid is turned off now. This screen shot was taken before your suggestion.

Right click task bar, properties, taskbar>auto hide taskbar. Simple.

BTW.. Why go through the trouble to black out your name, like your doing something wrong?

it's a layout thing.

basically, there is a dimension ratio where the width has to be a certain size in order to support the height of a certain size.

change the ui scaling and it should change. you could also use an addon (like bongos) to move your action bars around.

alternatively, you could spin your monitor 90 degrees into portrait mode and do a horizontal split... giving you 2 very nice screens, one above the other. (if you do that... please post a pic :D )

I had this problem a while ago too. All i did was adjust the maximizer hight of each window by a few pixels and voilà.

@ Keyclone
I don't think the problem is UI size related (WoW UI at least) when you hit escape and enter the interface menu for instance, one cannot press the accept button because it is to far down the screen..

autohiding the taskbar didn't work for me either as when i went to press the accept button for instace, it kept poping up and preventing me from clicking :P

adjust ur window sizes in maximizer a little bit and u'll be fine so instead of 1049pixel hight set it to 1024 or so.. play around :)

I should add my resolution is 1600x1200 on both monitors and the main is 20" and the secondary is 22" if that helps. ^^

ok thanks ill give the suggestions a try. As for why i white out my character names is because on a totally different website I had posted a couple screen shots relating to its theme and after that i started getting random people messaging me wanting me to go to keylogger links, gold site spam, and just random weird people. So after that i have always removed my names. I dont think anyone in this community would do that, but its the people who do nothing but try and find websites with names, account names, e-mail addresses of other people who they can attempt to hack or annoy.

well adjusting maximizer didnt help atleast when i tried it at 1035 height. i tried adjusting ui size within wow and that did not help. Oh well, guess ill just have to settle for horiz. view.

try more!! :P set it to 1000 and then 950 to go a bit overboard :) you should see a difference. By adjusting it by only 14 pixels you may just not be able to see the difference.

I was going to leave it like that initially, but somehow my brother managed to have it make a rly rly rly irritating sound when it un-hid itself, so i decided to lock my task bar in place and adjust the resolution :)

I find autohide for the task bar to be supremely annoying. I prefer instead to uncheck keep the taskbar on top of other windows. This will let the WoW window cover the taskbar. You can mouse all the way to the edge of the screen and never have the taskbar pop up. If you need to get to the taskbar, you can hit a variety of different keys to bring it to the front (i.e. the Windows key, ctrl+esc, etc.).
