#51 break free from parent window?

[Anonymous]

I have dual monitors and I would like to be able to have a session window outside of the parent mm2k window. Maybe make it so the mm2k menu can minimize to the tray and have the children float. would make it much easier so I can have a channelviewer window floating on my other monitor.

Right now because MudMaster 2k6 is an MDI application with session windows being child windows of the parent frame it isn't possible to break them free. If you minimize the parent frome the children must also minimize. There are a couple of ways we might be able enable simulate session windows in modeless dialogs which belong perhaps to the desktop instead of the parent frame. These would be able to float independent of the main mm2k6 frame. Another possibility for channelviewer in the future will probably be to have a dll which will allow the channel traffic sent to a separate instance of mudmaster 2k6 which could then of course float separately.

Both of these options will take significant effort so I don't know which build they might appear in.

OK thanks. I would prefer the first option, but because it will be a big change, don't worry about it unless other people are asking for the same thing. It doesn't bother me enough for me to want you to break your back putting it in. Thanks again.
