 I asked for a way of temporarily overriding the automatic rollup feature so that there was a way of keeping a window open for a short time, but which normally I would want to roll up when inactive.

Well it seems there is this feature now ( :D ) so thanks for that! I've just got a question or possibly a suggestion about the way it works.

a) It would be great if it could be assigned a titlebutton of its own - I can access it through the group button, but its on a submenu so can be a bit fiddly to get at.

b) When I do select it (via the group button), the group button then takes on the functionality of the 'Rollup' button, not the 'Disable auto-rollup' button - so clicking again doesn't remove the 'disable auto-rollup' option, it manually rolls or unrolls the window.

So, perhaps I'm not understanding how to get a titlebutton with that functionality - i.e. toggle 'disable auto-rollup', or perhaps the group button should be taking on this functionality but isn't.

Many thanks!

David.

 Hello David,

Thank you for your feature requests.
a) Do you mean you want to see a special title button for "Enable/Disable auto-rollup"? I`d like to draw your attention to the fact that if you have a Roll-up title button you can do it with a single right-click.
b) A slight bug confirmed. It will be fixed in the next release of AWM

 Update now using 5b2...

a) Yes I wanted it as a separate button, because on skype chat windows, I normally use auto-rollup. Sometimes I want to pin them open, but I would never want the normal 'rollup' button. I understand about using the right-click for this, but I'm so used to left clicking buttons for the function I want, it would be more user friendly to have a single purpose button to disable auto-rollup.

b) In 5b2, selecting 'disable auto-rollup' from the group menu works, but still doesn't set the group button function to toggling auto-rollup as I would expect. Before, it used to assign the normal 'rollup' function to the group button, but now, it doesn't assign any function to the group button - left clicking gets you the normal menu as if you've never selected a function for the group button at all.

Cheers,

Dave.
