Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Visual Studio 2012 and the move and maximize buttons

Hello,

Installed today the new Visual Studio 2012 release.
The window layout did change in this version and now the ultramon move and maximize buttons are placed on the windows minimize, maximize and close buttons and on the new feature Quick Launch search box just before the windows buttons.
I can't add a printscreen here, so I can't make it visible... I hope you get an idea what I mean.

The ultramon button are still functional, but if you want to minimize the window by the normal window minimize button, you must point precisely ;-)

Is there something to configure to avoid this or is it a 'bug'/'not yet implemented feature'?

I'll look into it, haven't installed VS 2012 yet.

As a workaround you could change the custom button spacing option under UltraMon Options > Buttons and Menu Commands, but this will affect the spacing for all applications. Unfortunately there is currently no app-specific compatibility option for this.

The same thing happens on Office 2013. In addition, I can't get the move/maximize buttons on Chrome at ALL.

I had seen that as well with the Office 2013 preview, it's a bug (position of the buttons doesn't get reported correctly).

With Chrome the problem is how the title bar is implemented, support for such applications will be considered for a future release.

Hi,
I am running the latest version of UltraMon (3.2.2).
I have just upgraded to Visual Studio Premium 2012, and the UltraMon buttons (maximise across monitors and switch window between monitors) are not visible at all.
I am also considering upgrading to Office Professional Plus 2013.
Can you please confirm if the UltraMon buttons are now compatible with Office 2013, and if there is a fix available yet for Visual Studio 2012?
Many thanks,
Graham

No fix yet for VS 2012 and Office 2013.

I would recommend checking if you're actually bothered by the Office issue, I'm using Office 2013 myself on Windows 8 and don't really notice the problem as the UltraMon buttons only cover the custom Office buttons, which I never use anyway. It's not the same for all users though, the minimize button may get covered as well.

In Visual Studio 2013, the Ultramon buttons do not appear.

Currently there's no fix for this, the Move Window/Maximize to Desktop hotkeys will work fine though, you can configure those via UltraMon Options > Hotkeys.
