Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Office 2007 and MOC missing buttons to expand or move to other monitor
dgs   2009-01-27 05:18
Some applications, e.g. many of the child windows in Outlook 2007 (e.g. readingmessage, calendaring event, replying to email, ...), the Office Communicator window, but not the individual chat windows, Snagit, SmartDraw 2009 are missing the two buttons to either move the window to the other monitor or expand it over both monitors.

The buttons are shown on other Office 2007 applications, but do not appear to work, instead when the mouse is moved over them they start flickering, and if one clicks on either of them, the application CPU use goes to 100% on one core of the CPU, and eventually something times out, and I can start using that application again.

Are there any known issues with application that use a more recent Microsoft UI like Office 2007?

This issue was fixed in the 3.0 beta, you can download the latest release here.

As a workaround, you could switch to the Windows XP visual style, you can do this under Control Panel > Display > Appearance.

Christian,
FYI I still get the missing buttons on the first child window that opens from Outlook 2007 (I have it load on second monitor). If I just slightly move the child window the the buttons appear. This doesn't happen on any subsequent window - the buttons appear correctly.
Minor point but this bug is still there.

Is this with 3.0.4? This now works fine for me, for example with a new mail or appointment window.

Unfortunately I don't know what might cause this, if you find out anything else let me know and I'll try to reproduce the issue.
