cannot resize save as dialogue box in textmaker

Post by barryhill »

Hi

A curious problem never encountered with MAC or specifically with Textmaker. I have upgraded to Monterey and since then if I do a Save As in Textmaker, I am unable to horizontally resize the dialogue box. It remains filling up the entire horizontal width of the screen. I can resize it vertically.

All other MAC apps are letting me Save As and resize as usual. The same thing is happening in Planmaker.

Also, there is only the green icon button top left, the other icon buttons are greyed out.

Any ideas?

This isn't happening with any other MAC apps, just Softmaker ...

Hi

The problem with resizing Save As windows persists. I've heard nothing fron Softmaker acknowledging this glitch and wondering when something might be done.

Our team is already working on this problem on high priority, but troubleshooting any software problem and then releasing the error-free revision is a very time-consuming multistage process, so please allow us some time. Thanks for your time and patience.

Thanks. I haven't noticed any information about this on your website, or from you to licensed users, maybe I missed the email. I guess others will be wondering about this too?

good to know it is being worked on.

I did try, but there is a warning that it is not possible to contact some recipients.

I have to be a bit vague, but what you sent me is not compatible with MacOS Monterey?

I am also having the same error with Textmaker.
The "Save As" has continued to expand horizontally to beyond the width of both screens ( side by side ) so I have to pick up the dialog box and manually move it to the left to get to the Cancel and Save buttons.

The Save as PDF extension no longer functions either. The dialog box just does not appear.

I am currently using TextMaker Professional 2021 (rev S1038.1028) 64bit on macOS Monterey 12.1 on a 2013 MacPro
I have uninstalled Softmaker and then re-installed the latest version -- however, the preferences, recent documents and other settings were unaffected, indicating that these settings were stored somewhere else.

Is the dialog size stored somewhere in a hidden file? Can it be reset to default size?
