Re: Kernel 53.22 problem with SamFlex

"Interresting" isn't the term I would use to describe my feelings if I find out I bought a system that must be crippled down to the equivalent of a system that cost hundreds less. Hasn't DAX stated that also a (good) CPU Fan solves the problem? If so, adding a Fan is not like having to 'c...

Re: Feature request: Lock window to be at top

@ nexus If this were such a great and much-needed feature, surely operating systems would have implemented that in their windowing environments years ago? And I'm quite sure that OS and UI developments are pushed forward by greater brains than mine or yours :-) Yes, exactly! And that's the reason w...

Re: Feature request: Lock window to be at top

@trixie I strongly disagree! The programmer can't know the needs of each and every user. Actually, he has *not* to domineer the user but should offer various possibilities to the user such that he himself can adapt and use a program according to his will/needs/preferences/habits! If the user *wants*...

Re: Feature request: Lock window to be at top

@ trixie The solution I suggested would have a toggle switch as per the OP's suggestion (or equivalent function, else how would you select the window to "stay on top"/be in the front "playfield"?). The selection of the toggle would indicate whether it is in the front "playf...

Re: Feature request: Lock window to be at top

Calgor is right. That's the behaviour as it should be and as it is on other operating systems (where that feature is called "Always on top").

Re: Feature request: Lock window to be at top

My personal feature request is:

Windows (especially Shells) open at a free area of the workbench, not overlapping (if possible) with other windows instead of opening at a fixed position.
(Forcing windows to open at the same position could be done by a "snapshot" as usual)

Thanks,

Re: Way to increase Zorro 3 autoconfig address space?

I was hoping someone from Hyperion could shed some light on my listed questions as they are the only ones who know how their OS4.X autoconfig fully works. Very informative analysis of autoconfig from your side! Thanks for that, and it actually deserves an answer :) Unfortunately I can't give one (c...

Could you provide a source code example that implements a piece of cake? :D
