If the graphics has been minimized and then closed, when trying to open it again the window does not show up. The only possibilty to view the graphics is in a maximized window.
Resizing this maximized window is not possible even.

Using the graphics in a normal way is only possbile if closing Boinc and start over again.

Using Win XP Pro SP1, NVidia GeForce4MX440 with latest drivers.

I noticed this same thing in the old version of sixtrack.

It would be nice if this could be resolved in the next application.

Right clicking and 'maximizing' restores graphics.

Then, you can grab a corner of that window and resize it.

So. the 'problem' is that the client graphics remembered their position from when you closed it.. and in this case, it 'remembered' the minimized position.

No problem, I can do this.

This is actually the problem I have: grabbing at a corner does not work and using the middle button "reducing" (not sure this is the right name in English, the button between mimize and close) is not working. If I use this button, the graphical window is closed.

Thanks for the reminder.
Quite honestly, I never tried it with S@H. It is indeed the case.

ok.. from the 'evil minimized state'

Maximize.

Close.

Open graphics again using Boinc.
It opens maximized.

Now.. you can move it and resize it.
