OK, I'm missing the last two posts. Quotes but no post otherwise. Intended? Or something screwy w/the forum?-J-Mac (September 11, 2011, 08:26 PM)
if it's not too much hassle that would be great-tomos link=topic=27849.msg261177#msg261177
One other thing: by default Echo minimizes when it loses focus. So instead of clicking the small button - whether minimize or close - you can just click anywhere on screen to get the same end result.-tranglos (September 08, 2011, 12:06 PM)
Great, you've found the first bug!

Just to be sure I'm on the right track: select a clip but instead of pressing Enter, press Ctrl+C. This will only copy the clip (without pasting) and Echo will stay open. The clip you have copied should move to the top immediately.-tranglos (September 08, 2011, 11:21 AM)
I think it would be helpful if the close button minimised it to the tray. Or maybe it's just what I'm used to with apps that stay in the tray?-tomos (September 08, 2011, 06:10 AM)
I never use that myself (I use the minimize button for that :-) but I can add this as an option, no problem.-tranglos (September 08, 2011, 11:23 AM)

From my, (admittedly not extensive), experience, Windows 7 always seems to include the 100MB System Reserved partition when it does a new install to a blank HDD, ie. not a single partition formatted HDD.I think that's correct --4wd (September 06, 2011, 10:38 PM)
Windows 7 installation wizard will not modify existing partition which already been defined and allocated. The 100 MB .. partiton will only be created when user creates new partition on a clean and empty HDD (no partitions) [with the windows install dvd], or delete all partitions and then create a new partition during setup. Thus, system with hard disk already partitioned, and users wish no change to existing partitioning but wish to clean install can just format the partition in Windows 7 setup wizard before installing.http://www.mydigital...nstalling-windows-7/
i.e. Windows only creates that partition if starting on a 'clean' (partitionless) hd-tomos (July 22, 2011, 03:51 AM)
"it still only previews one font at a time." - this is untrue as it will preview one font, all fonts or the font a user selects.-Veign (September 06, 2011, 02:32 PM)
CFontPro from Veign will be the top choice for many. It has a wide range of views including a glyph viewer and character zoom to pixel level. It provides more font information than any of the font managers here.sounds pretty good...
I'm still a bit gun shy regarding the Themida anti-piracy software that gets installed with it.-J-Mac (September 06, 2011, 11:41 AM)
You could always try mine:

It did (2008) get a very good review at Smashing Magazine (link in first post above)MainType is an universal font management tool for both novice users and advanced graphic designers and typographers. In order to find the right fonts for your needs, the software includes filter and sort functionality. The main information about the font, such as its properties, supported characters, font type etc. are displayed in a font information pane. A groups pane helps you quickly organize all your fonts.my emphasis
If you're seriously considering it, have a look at this MainType forum thread - they're considering a rewrite because it cant cache the details of your fonts - this means it currently has to read all your fonts on startup and people are saying it's slow (doesnt seem to be included in the list of improvements above). For me this is not a problem - I have only 200 fonts installed.-tomos (May 31, 2010, 07:14 AM)

The extra white space cannot be solved -- it has to do with the way notepad displays windows contents and never displays a partial line at the bottom.-mouser (September 06, 2011, 08:04 AM)
Tomos, that is an important clue.
So can i confirm -- with "windows 7 basic" you get a good capture, but with other themes you don't?-mouser (September 06, 2011, 07:01 AM)
i wonder if the problem is windows (7) themes..-mouser (September 05, 2011, 03:58 PM)
BTW, I tried to capture today this page

with various tools, and it's the only one which was able to capture the page without the bold fonts to appear garbled.-MerleOne (September 05, 2011, 11:23 AM)
