Actual Title Buttons Full Changelog
How to Upgrade
[!] Important [+] New [-] Fixed error [*] Changes ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.15.2 (13.11.2024) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Program startup speed is slightly increased and overall security is hardened by adding page hashes to Actual Title Buttons executable files. [-] Title Buttons: Some bad-behaving apps might impose noticeable useless load on CPU if extra buttons were added to their windows. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.15.1 (27.04.2024) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [*] Mouse Drag and Scroll: The window dragging part of the "Make the entire window area responsive to dragging/sizing" feature has been reimplemented: now it works much more stable and smoother (no more unwanted title button activations, sizing instead of dragging, or sudden window jumps while dragging), and is compatible with most of the apps. The known issues: tabbed CMD/PowerShell/Notepad/Explorer windows in Win11, Actual Tools Tabbed Explorer windows. [-] Windows 11 22H2+, Keyboard Modifier Keys: Any specified modifier key combination stopped being recognized after dragging out any tab in the system tabbed apps (File Explorer, Notepad, CMD/PowerShell). So the Actual Title Buttons features based on those combinations stopped working as well. [-] Windows 10+, Window Settings: In some cases, settings stopped being applied to Metro/UWP apps after restarting Actual Title Buttons. [!] Windows 11, Title Buttons: List of knows issues in this version (subject to fix in the future updates, last checked on Windows 11 Version 23H2, build 22631.3447): - extra buttons may cover tabs in the system tabbed apps (File Explorer, Notepad, CMD/PowerShell) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.15 (26.06.2023) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Security: Now all Actual Tools runtime executables natively support the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) and Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) security technologies provided by the system. That hardens the overall system security by preventing various exploit attacks. [*] Mouse Drag and Scroll: Now the "Make the entire window area responsive to dragging/sizing" feature is compatible with the Chromium-based apps: Google Chrome and other web browsers (Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, Yandex.Browser), Slack, WhatsApp, MS Teams, Upwork, Spotify, etc. [*] Title Buttons: Numerous fixes and improvements in Chromium-based apps: - glyphs on extra buttons did not change their color when toggling an app's window active/inactive - automatic gradual compact mode did not work in Opera and Vivaldi (so the extra buttons covered the browser tabs and the "New tab" button) Note: If you have specific windows settings for these browsers (either factory or custom) then you need to reset there the "Title Buttons > Options > Shift the buttons horizontally" value back to 0 to make the gradual compact mode work properly. - in some cases current title bar color could not be detected correctly, and the glyphs looked wrong (e.g. white in the Light visual theme) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.14.7 (22.06.2022) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Memory consumption and overall system load is slightly reduced. [!] In some rare cases multi-window applications might crash silently after closing and re-opening a window of the same type (e.g. separate message window in email client). [*] Compatibility is improved with custom cursors provided by Yolo Mouse. [*] Title Buttons: Compatibility with Bluebeam Revu is improved. [-] After exiting and then starting Actual Title Buttons back, some features in some applications might work erratically. [-] In multi-window applications memory leaked slightly after each cycle of closing a window and then opening two windows in a row. [-] Excel 2007+ hung after closing some of its standard dialogs: Protect Sheet, Conditional Formatting, Chart Data, etc. [-] Windows 11, Title Buttons: In some system applications (e.g. Windows Paint) unwanted visual effects might appear if any extra buttons were added to their windows. [-] Title Buttons: X1 Search hung at startup if any extra buttons were added to its window. [-] Title Buttons: In some specific applications (especially having windows with non-standard frames) title buttons might appear invisible. [-] Title Buttons: In some specific applications (e.g. X1 Search, SnagIt!) the Compact View popup toolbar appeared empty. [-] Title Buttons: In some cases, extra buttons might not work in MDI windows. [-] Window Actions, Title Buttons: The Resize Window title button disappeared after minimizing/restoring a window. [-] Window Actions, Title Buttons: The Align Window title button did not restore the original window placement after changing the alignment several times in a row. [-] Window Actions, Mouse: The support for windows with a non-standard window frame to intercept clicks on a title bar, sizeable border, and standard Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons to invoke assigned mouse actions, as well as to prevent accidental window closing, added in the previous version, did not work in systems before Windows 10. [-] Window Actions, Hotkeys: The Move to Next Monitor hotkey stopped working when its corresponding title button was disabled but the corresponding system menu command was enabled. [-] Window Actions: If a window was rolled up and then minimized, pausing or exiting Actual Title Buttons did not restore window's original position and size. [-] Configuration: For some combinations of non-default font and non-default font size, the layout of controls got messed in the "Options" group of the "Title Buttons" property sheet. [-] Configuration: The Send to Tech Support feature did not recognize Windows 11 marking the sent configurations as Win10-built. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.14.6 (22.11.2021) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Some internal components are made more concurrency-friendly by removing redundant locks and eliminating bottlenecks that might cause a noticeable system slowdown on multi-core CPUs in some scenarios. [!] Internal consumption of memory and system resources is slightly reduced, some memory/resource leaks are fixed. [+] Windows 10: Some improvements for UWP apps: - extra menu commands added by Actual Title Buttons are finally available in the system window menu invoked by a title bar right click - mouse actions assigned to a title bar and standard title buttons now work as expected - the Quick Settings dialog now can be invoked by a title bar click (middle button by default) [+] Window Actions, Mouse: The support is added for windows with a non-standard window frame to intercept clicks on a title bar, sizeable border, and standard Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons to invoke assigned mouse actions, as well as to prevent accidental window closing. [+] Window Actions: Now the Freeze mode can be toggled via Stay Always-on-Top title button's context menu, as well as the "Options > Stay always-on-top" submenu in window's system menu. [+] Title Buttons: The option is added to disable the button's context menu showing in response to a "long" left click (see the "Window Settings > Global Options > Title Buttons" panel). [*] Windows 10 build 19041+, Title Buttons: Glyphs on extra buttons now are contrast in Chromium-based apps, like web browsers (Google Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, Brave), collaboration tools (Microsoft Teams, Slack for Desktop, Upwork), media players (Spotify), etc. [*] Window Actions, Multiple Monitors: The Move to Monitor action now works more accurately in the "Keep aspect ratio" mode when moving a window between monitors with different both display and DPI resolutions (calculation of both the window location and size has been improved). [*] Window Actions, Mouse: The "Maximize horizontally/vertically" mouse actions work again in a "toggle" manner (i.e. restore the previous window size on a second click). [*] Window Actions: Smooth rolling up is improved. [-] Windows 10 build 19041+, Title Buttons: Glyphs on extra buttons were not contrast in desktop apps in the Dark visual theme. [-] Title Buttons: Extra buttons covered the standard ones in Google Chrome windows on monitors with high (> 200%) DPI resolutions. [-] Title Buttons: Extra buttons covered the tabs in Microsoft Edge windows. [-] Title Buttons: Extra buttons covered the standard ones in Slack for Desktop 4.20+. [-] Title Buttons: dragging/sizing a window by the mouse imposed some excessive CPU consumption if any extra buttons were added to the window's title bar. [-] Title Buttons: Extra buttons became clipped at the bottom after moving their host window from a monitor with a low (< 150%) DPI resolution to a monitor with a high (> 200%) DPI resolution. [-] Window Settings, Windows 7+: Another proper specific settings did not apply to a File Explorer window with some specific settings already applied when its caption changed after switching to a certain folder and the Explorer option "Display the full path in the title bar" was on. [-] Windows 11, Multiple Monitors, Window Actions: Applying the Move to Monitor action to maximized windows produced unwanted behavior and visual glitches. To prevent this, the "Enable compatibility mode for maximized windows" option now is enabled by default (see the "Window Settings > Global Options > Move to Monitor" panel). [-] Window Actions: Some fixes and improvements for the Monitor Selector dialog: - in the "Move to" mode, the dialog closes after releasing the left mouse button only if some real movement can be made, otherwise the dialog stays active - in the "Move to" mode, dragging the window preview thumbnail is improved - now drawing is faster due to removing some redundant operations - in UWP apps, the dialog did not activate after being invoked - title bar did not scaled properly to a current DPI resolution - being called for a Maximize to Desktop title button, dialog scaled using the primary monitor's DPI resolution instead of a current DPI resolution - in some cases, visual glitches might appear when drawing active dots in the "Move to" mode [-] Window Actions: Some fixes for the Quick Settings dialog: - applying the "Send to bottom" action and closing the dialog activated the target window that returned it back on top and therefore made the entire operation senseless - invoking any service dialog (like "Move to", "Custom position/size", etc.) for the Quick Settings window itself made it disappear immediately - fixed graphic resource leaks after each dialog's showing/closing [-] Window Actions, Hotkeys: Applying any manual alignment to a window (either via extra title button or window menu command) broke the correct functioning of the Quick Alignment Numpad hotkeys. [-] Window Actions: Applying a manual alignment with some horizontal or vertical position shift specified and then resizing the window by the Resize action did not retain the specified shift(s) making the window jump to a certain monitor border closely. [-] Window Actions: The "Display current window position" feature did not activate when a window was being resized either by its top-right or bottom-left corner. [-] Window Actions: Windows did not rolled up completely on a secondary monitor if its DPI resolution was less than primary's. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.14.5 (12.02.2021) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Windows 10 Insider x64 build 21277+: The program crashed at startup. [+] Licensing: The evaluation period is prolonged by a third of its original duration for the update versions released after the Free Updates Subscription expiration date. [+] Window Actions: Ability is added to insert explicit delays into combo action sequences. Note: The ability to specify a delay for the Run Keyboard Macro combo items has been removed; all existing such items will be converted automatically to a separate Run Keyboard Macro item and explicit Delay item. [+] Title Buttons: Ability is added to specify a name for custom Run Keyboard Macro buttons. [-] An invalid memory operation could cause cascading errors in the Control Center at its startup if the "Collect usage statistics" option was enabled. [-] Some application windows (e.g. Directory Opus) stopped reacting on Control Center commands (like pausing/resuming or modifying the settings). [-] Window Actions: The Run Keyboard Macro action forced its target window remain foreground, which was inappropriate if a macro's purpose presumed another window activation (especially when the action was activated by any means other than "At Window Startup"). [-] Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icons placed at the right/bottom edge of a monitor might get out of sight after reducing the monitor's resolution. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.14.4 (10.10.2020) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Internal security has been accurately revised and tightened to follow the principle of least privilege (in particular, for kernel objects used for inter-process communication). [!] Internal error handling has been revised and improved for better interoperability with apps using .NET runtime (and probably some other frameworks). [!] Internal handling of display-related information has been optimized to reduce the overall delay after changing the desktop geometry (i.e. attaching/detaching a monitor or changing a monitor resolution). [-] In some rare cases some apps might get hung after reapplying their window settings or unloading Actual Title Buttons. [-] Mouse, Windows 7+ x64: If a 32-bit app that installs system-wide mouse hook was launched after Actual Title Buttons then clicking the right mouse button in any 64-bit console app's window (Command Prompt, Power Shell, etc.) made ActualTitleButtonsCenter.exe "run away", therefore hogging the CPU heavily. [-] Title Buttons, Windows 7+: MS SQL Server Management Studio got hung after trying to close it via "File -> Exit" menu command if any extra buttons were added to its main window's title bar. [-] Title Buttons, Windows 10 x86 build 19041+: UWP apps crashed at startup if any extra buttons were added to their window's title bar. [-] Title Buttons: Mozilla Firefox got hung after activating an Adobe Flash element in a web page, if any extra buttons were added to its window's title bar. [-] Title Buttons: In some cases the Move to Monitor button's tooltip displayed incorrect monitor index (e.g. when a window was moved to another monitor using the alignment dots in the "Move to..." dialog). [-] Title Buttons, Slack for Desktop 4.5+: Extra buttons covered new elements in Slack window' title bar (like Search edit box, Help button, or user's avatar button). [-] Title Buttons: The Align action worked wrong after selecting it in the grouping button's context menu and then left-clicking the grouping button. [-] Mouse Drag and Scroll: Pale Moon got hung after activating an Adobe Flash element in a web page if the "Make the entire window area responsive to dragging/sizing" feature was enabled. [-] Window Actions, Mouse: In some cases, "Maximize horizontally" or "Maximize vertically" mouse actions did not work as expected on their first call. [-] Window Actions: Windows of Mozilla-based apps (Firefox, Thunderbird, Pale Moon, etc.) could not be stretched by a right click on their border. [-] Window Actions: Windows of Mozilla-based apps (Firefox, Thunderbird, Pale Moon, etc.) could not be resized by dragging their right/bottom border if they were stretched or snapped to a right/bottom boundary of a monitor. [-] Window Actions: The following bugs are fixed in the "Move to" helper dialog: - dialog was twice as large on monitors with higher DPI resolution - when dragging a window preview, you could not align it using the Aero Snap feature if the native Aero Snap was enabled in the system - when a green alignment dot was hovered by a mouse, the desktop preview window that shows the dot's corresponding target location was slightly bigger than required and so might go beyond monitor's visible area [-] Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icon could be dragged just once if the "Use double click" option was set in the window settings. [-] Configuration, Title Buttons: Changing the "Use double click" option in the "Window Settings > Default Settings > Title Buttons > Action Options:AltMin" panel had no effect. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.14.3 (27.12.2019) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] In some rare cases, running applications might crash randomly. [!] Some applications (Adobe products, TechSmith products, Parametric Technologies products, and some others) got hung if two or more Actual Tools programs were running at once (exiting all but one Actual Tools programs made hung applications responsive back). [-] Title Buttons, Windows 10: Extra buttons looked shorter than regular ones in maximized windows of Chromium-based applications (Google Chrome, Slack for Desktop, Vivaldi, Opera, Yandex.Browser, Spotify, etc.). [-] Title Buttons, Slack for Desktop: The following bugs are fixed: - extra buttons covered the regular ones if zero horizontal button shift was specified - extra buttons were almost invisible as their glyphs were of the same color as the title bar - window couldn't be maximized correctly if there were any extra buttons [-] Title Buttons: In some rare cases, extra buttons might disappear until a window got dragged/sized. [-] Title Buttons: Extra buttons might either get behind their host window's title bar or get visible through other windows in the following cases: - after minimizing and then restoring windows via Aero Shake - after starting a capture in Windows Snipping Tool - in Excel 2013+, after opening the "Find and Replace" dialog and then activating a main Excel window [-] Window Actions: Custom title buttons/hotkeys for the "Run keyboard macro" action stopped working in the Default window settings. [-] Text on buttons in the Evaluation dialog was garbled in some Asian languages (Chinese, Japanese). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.14.2 (29.10.2019) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Numerous fixes of runtime internals to improve speed, robustness, and reliability. [+] Ability to update an existing license key is added: see the "Enter new license key" item either in the "Tools - License" Configuration window panel or in the Actual Title Buttons notification area icon's context menu. [+] Window Actions: The ability is added to keep a window always behind others - see the "Stay at bottom" item either in the "Send to bottom" title button's context menu or in the "Options - Send to bottom" submenu of window's system menu.

[-] Configuration: The "Copy settings from" command stopped working. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual Title Buttons 8.13.3 (28.11.2018) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [!] Windows 10 build 17763+: System SmartScreen process ate up to 100% CPU resources when Actual Title Buttons was running. [!] Window Settings: Exclusions stopped working since the version 8.13. [*] Configuration: Specific Settings editing windows now are truly independent of the main Configuration window: - clicking the Apply button in such window now immediately saves the changes (no need to click Apply in the main window as well) - after closing the main window these windows remain fully functional [-] Title Buttons, Windows 10: Glyphs on extra buttons flipped in systems with right-to-left writing languages (Arabic, Hebrew, etc.).
