Hi

Attached is lSwitcher-2-92-0-RC_10.wpi. Hopefully the last RC.
This changes reduce desktop so it works with resize and auto resize.
Allow resize is no longer automatically selected when autoresize is deselected.

Good. At least now we can compare functionality between this and old 2.61 on an equal footing. 2.92 seems to do a number of funny things with this indeed, but I'll go over that after I test it a bit more.

It also blocks activation of hotkeys on processes where the action
isn't supported  (ie pressing "a" when the desktop is the selected
process will not attempt to  cascade the desktop).

Confirmed, I can't tile or cascade the Desktop, etc. now. Great.

Fixed failure of tile and cascade to appear on menus associated with PM
folders.

Confirmed, they appear now.

Hopefully I have finally fixed trying to cascade or tile things that aren't
designed to be resized. They simply won't have these menu choices.

Confirmed. I think this is more or less inevitable, but at least you shouldn't even try with things that tell you so. I tried a number of programs and objects that are non-resizable, and it has worked so far (tile or cascade options not displayed at all). So, no tickets -- Perfect ^^

BTW: apparently lSwitcher only lists up to 27 windows in its PM poopup. While that is fine for me, and probably more than enough for everyone, perhaps it should somehow indicate when there are more windows opened than listed.

Thanks,
Alfred.

P.S. What I found funny about the new keys description on the PM popup is that it is always two-line, even if only one is used (f.e. for the Desktop). But it would probably look odd to keep resizing the window all the time, for example if you alternate the PM popup selection between the Desktop (1-line keys description) and a WPS folder.
