Recently GP updated the Print Output Screen to automatically maximize when something prints to screen. Does anyone know if there is any way to turn this off? (3rd party products?)
We have users that don't always need these so they close out of these windows. They start clicking close repeatedly for multiple windows, then accidently close GP. This ends up causing other windows that may be open to get hung up.

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Danyell Maloney

I, myself, do not have time to troubleshoot this one, but I'm almost certain it will be a setting in the DEX.ini in the Data folder.

@David Musgrave will likely be our best bet for a sure answer.​​

@Danyell Maloney

I checked (using GP Power Tools) whether there was a Dex.ini setting looked for when you print a report and there wasn't one. So there is no way to turn this off.

A long time ago, I had already added a screen output memory for size and position into GP Power Tools when @Shawn Dorward first asked me for this functionality.

This has now been updated to undo the maximize that GP does and size to whatever the last size, position and state was when the window was closed.

Just install GP Power Tools and activate the free 30 day trial.

Oops. quick follow up. The fix detailed below:

• Updated Report Screen Output Memory to remember maximized or normal state and restore state, even on v18.3 which maximizes by default.

Is included in build 28.5 which is a hotfix that is still in beta testing and has not been officially released to the public yet.

If you want to test the beta build, please let me know and I can give you access.

If there is demand, I can release 28.5 earlier rather than later. It is ready to go but I was just waiting to see if any other changes were needed. Trying not to release too many hotfixes.

Email me at support at WinthropDC​ dot com if you would like the links to the beta code.

Otherwise, I will probably release it sooner so people can solve this, plus the other tweaks I have made to the GPPT code.

Oops. quick follow up. The fix detailed below:

• Updated Report Screen Output Memory to remember maximized or normal state and restore state, even on v18.3 which maximizes by default.

Is included in build 28.5 which is a hotfix that is still in beta testing and has not been officially released to the public yet.

If you want to test the beta build, please let me know and I can give you access.

If there is demand, I can release 28.5 earlier rather than later. It is ready to go but I was just waiting to see if any other changes were needed. Trying not to release too many hotfixes.

Regards

David

@Danyell Maloney

I checked (using GP Power Tools) whether there was a Dex.ini setting looked for when you print a report and there wasn't one. So there is no way to turn this off.

A long time ago, I had already added a screen output memory for size and position into GP Power Tools when Shawn Dorwood first asked me for this functionality.

This has now been updated to undo the maximize that GP does and size to whatever the last size, position and state was when the window was closed.

Just install GP Power Tools and activate the free 30 day trial.

Hi @Danyell Maloney

I, myself, do not have time to troubleshoot this one, but I'm almost certain it will be a setting in the DEX.ini in the Data folder.

@David Musgrave will likely be our best bet for a sure answer.​​

Recently GP updated the Print Output Screen to automatically maximize when something prints to screen. Does anyone know if there is any way to turn this off? (3rd party products?)
We have users that don't always need these so they close out of these windows. They start clicking close repeatedly for multiple windows, then accidently close GP. This ends up causing other windows that may be open to get hung up.

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Nancy Edwards

Email me at support at WinthropDC​ dot com if you would like the links to the beta code.

Otherwise, I will probably release it sooner so people can solve this, plus the other tweaks I have made to the GPPT code.

Regards

David
