 IDE windows re-size and move during/after compile
When I hit F5 (or use menus) to compile and download the code the whole IDE window resizes and moves. Then when I get rid of the 'program debug' buttons palette, the IDE again resizes and moves. I quite like to code with the IDE and a browser with API info side by side and filling the whole screen. When I first compiled just now, the IDE went from half the screen, to nearly filling the screen, then went back to a different position and size, meaning I had to manually drag resize and position the IDE window. Does this happen on 'native' Windows systems ie is it a VMWare issue? Does it annoy anyone else? I can't find any settings in RobotC or Windows that might have an effect on this, have I missed something? Oh, and if I was being a real pedant ,-> should it be 'compile and upload' or even 'compile and sideload'? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uploading_and_downloadingRunning RobotC 3.54 on Windows 8 in VMWare Fusion 5, but did re-size and move with previous versions of RobotC, VMWare and WinXP.

 Re: IDE windows re-size and move during/after compile
Mike, The terms uploading and downloading are always mixed up, I stopped worrying about it  They basically kept the same terms as the ones LEGO was using. As for the window resize thing, I can confirm this with 3.55 B2. = Xander

 Re: IDE windows re-size and move during/after compile
oops, I meant to put a smiley after the upload/download thing, it was meant a bit tongue in cheek as not a real problem!
Does the window resize bother anyone else? Is it a Windows thing, or something RobotMatter can fix?

 Re: IDE windows re-size and move during/after compile
I just maximise my window in both modes, so it's never an issue for me. I can see how it would be annoying, though.

 Re: IDE windows re-size and move during/after compile - IGNO
I had a play about, I think it is actually a feature:-)
Whilst editing text: drag window to desired size and position. Whilst running program with program debug palette up: also drag window to desired size and position.
So I can have both in the same size and position, but you could also position in other ways e.g. during running program have maximised window to see variables.
Sorry, us Mac users aren't used to this level of 'control':-)
