Once my boss leaves, I'll see about making a Multi-Window handler that will let you set the positions of the windows..


As it stands now, I believe you can right-click the icon in the taskbar for AC, and click 'Move' to move the window.

Boss is staying late today, but I leave in about half an hour, so I'll work on it after dinner tonight.

Okay... I have modified this stand-alone application to show you a list of Asheron's Call windows it finds, and has 2 buttons.. One for toggling the window borders on/off.


Toggling the window borders will also move the window to the coordinates x=0, y=0.


If you don't like these coordinates, you can right-click the AC window in the task-bar, and select Move. Using this option, my experience has been that I have to start the movement with the arrow keys, but I can then position the window with the mouse.


It's pretty self-explanatory, but I do not have any kind of dual client system setup, so please test and report any bugs you find here.


I will be adding the draggable window movement feature to VMT this weekend, and also making a separate decal plugin just for toggling the window borders. (Though this feature will still be an option in VMT.)


[edit]

Oh yeah... The download is the same. Should be version 0.0.0.2. Enjoy!

Noticed a bug when I was testing this in a separate app that lets me choose the window names to remove the borders..


The bug is this:

If you refresh the window list, the handles are not refreshed properly. This could cause problems if you open one window, run this app, and then open another AC window.


Ensure both windows are open for the time being, and it should work fine.. If one crashes, make sure to restart the toggler.


I'll have a fix for this up tonight.


[edit]

I may post up the source for this tonight, as well..


Some of you might be surprised at how simple it was to do.


[edit again]

Still had 24 minutes to edit this post, so...


I have updated the download to Version 0.0.0.3 which fixes the bug mentioned above.


The source is released now, so feel free to tinker with it, and do what ya like. You can get it at http://www.verrigan.net/VMT/AC%20Window%20Border%20Toggler%20Source.zip (It was written in VB 6)
