 I noticed that in AWM's standard exclusion list there is an exclusion for "Popup menu" (Window class #32768). What is this exclusion's purpose? It does something unwanted to a menu of my time writing program, and I want to decide to whether to just deactivate this exclusion or to add a specific setting for the time writing program's menu.

 Hello Pim

The purpose of this exclusion is to prevent different menus from processing by AWM to avoid the mess like moving menus to other monitor, making it transparent etc.

If you don't have the settings that can lead to such mess you can try to disable the exclusion.

But what does it do with a menu of your time writing program? What is this program?

What versions of OS and AWM are you running?

Best regards.

 Hello Bogdan,

Thank you for your reply. I have done some more tests after receiving your reply. The issue actually appears to be an issue of the time writing program itself. If I have it opened on monitor 2 the menus always appear on monitor 1, even if AWM is switched off. The strange thing, but not particularly relevant anymore because I now know what to do, is that if the program is on monitor 3, the menu's do appear on monitor 3, also with AWM stopped. Monitor 1 is my primary monitor BTW. My conclusion is that I actually need AWM to solve this issue! And because of your information I will take the route of adding a new specific setting, thus leaving the exclusion intact for the purpose you described.

I do not know whether it is relevant anymore, but the program is Nedsoft Urenregistratie, a Dutch program. I am running Vista Ultimate 32-bit and AWM 7.5 beta 1.

Best regards.
