Hi Lewis

I thought I responded to this but can find it. So sorry if you get 2
responses.
Miracle of the internet: your post from one hour earlier just showed up
as this one did. Go figure.

Hi

I managed to break grouping and it took forever for me to find the
issue. That is now fixed. I have cleaned up the layout of all the
dialogues and I think I have the language stuff working everywhere.

This should fix Lewis' "Priority" issue except when a VDM is labeled
"Default" instead of VDM. There is probably nothing I can do in this
case. It should also fix Alfred's issue with tile and cascade. It
also
fixes the clipped text in the popup (here at least).

Confirmed that this seems to be working as expected for DOS sessions
(half a dozen tested) and Win-OS/2 sessions, as well. Kudos. I haven't
looked closely at Alfredo's tile and cascade issue (I've been meaning
to
do that, but have been busy).
The cascade and tile issue like the priority issue depend on the flags
set by the program and will only be as good as the flags set. If what I
have done still leaves problems I will need copies of any programs that
fail to behave as expected so I can see their flags. some may not be
fixable without breaking this for programs that should be supported.

I'll add a brief note to the help concerning priority as it pertains
to
DOS and Win-OS/2 sessions.

As for reduce desktop The following is from the XWP help.
"Do not use this setting on the XCenter if you have the corresponding
WarpCenter setting enabled also. The XCenter cannot check for whether
the WarpCenter has this enabled as well, and this will probably lead
to
problems."
I would think the same applies to lSwitcher and as such recommend
against using it on both at the same time.

I would concur that this seems a reasonable assumption.

Alfred I am aware you had some other requests. If you want me to
consider them please add tickets for them.

I can't reproduce Lewis' tooltip issue (didn't try with RC7) with the
attached RC8 code. Thanks

Seems fixed in RC8.

Switching languages, saving, opening Properties, and switching back
seems to leave me in a spot where I can't get the properties notebook
to
open again. Closing and re-launching lSwitcher returns the notebook to
proper operation.

Titlebar text is legible when changing language to a different
CP, however, the taskbar context menu is not. This requires a
Close/re-launch of lSwitcher, which may not be unexpected.
Switching languages without a restart is basically undefined. It
may work (or seem to work) in some cases. The expectation is that
the program will be restarted after a language change. Because of
the Xcenter widget this is not something I can gracefully implement
automatically. Thanks

Currently, I have the help stating that an lSwitcher restart is
necessary when changing languages. So, what's the recommended procedure
for the XCenter? Just close it and re-open, or does it actually require
a desktop restart to reload the hook dll? I'll adjust the help as
necessary.
Just closing xCenter and reopening seems to work fine. The hook hasn't been updated in 2.92. Thanks


Okay, last help changes for now.

Clarified that when using the taskbar, an lSwitcher restart is required, and when using the widget, an XCenter close/restart is needed.

Also added one sentence to each Priority menu item reference footnote concerning lack of availability for DOS and Win-OS/2 sessions, for consistency with main content.
