Hi,
Following on from my post "Screen Zoom" in Need Help, I'm reporting here a repeatable problem with the window controls for a zoomed screen. Basically, after you have used the Windows screen zoom control (CTRL+Mousewheel on my system - mouse is set to "one line at at time" in Win mouse settings), the MMW screen correctly paints with a (usefully) smaller font and all in-window user interactions work normally, but the window controls at top right (mini player, minimise, restore, close window) stop responding to the mouse.
Process:
- Get MMW running full screen - mouse movement over window controls highlights controls and actions the window as expected.
- Zoom window out two steps (two mouse wheel clicks back)
- All MMW mouse interactions work as per usual, except mouse movement over window controls is not registered, so can't control the screen from those.
- Zoom window back in two steps, window controls become available again.
This is not fatal because I don't use the mini player, don't usually try to minimise MM and at any time can right click on the toolbar icon for MM to close it if necessary. But it is an anomaly in the user interface for a fairly fundamental control and might put off some less-experienced users.
Happy to submit a debug log if you can't reproduce, though if MM doesn't see the mouse rolling over the control then it wouldn't show in the log, would it?
Cheers
Matt
