Nice find!  As for my app, you'd be surprised how little code there is in it so no worries.   :D

Bear in mind that I did change up the commandline syntax a little bit so I hope you haven't gotten too far into your batch files.-skwire (May 19, 2011, 01:20 PM)

I want this for my Netbook but all the trials have been carried out on my PC so nothing is set.

I also made the taskbar button an option as well.  Please check the readme.txt for details.

I may stick to the original as having got it working I am not sure that I need the additions but I shall try both before I decide.

Just like waiting for a bus, nothing for ages and then three come along at once.

How did he make that program so small?

I have downloaded a copy to have a look at but the first problem that I can see is how to create a batch file that will open it with 'No Border' set, as every time you start the program it resets to the default.
I have also downloaded a copy of CaptureScreen to compare it with what I already have.

Thank you again skwire for the program and your time, thank you joiwind for a very useful link, and thank you to the others for their input.

One question in conclusion; does anyone know of an elementary tutorial on writing batch files?
Some of what I found is extremely comprehensive but most of it is way over my head.
What I need is something that offers working examples that I can then try to modify myself.

vixay:
how about maxview by faststone? You'll have to see the documentation for the commandline parameters

Also for scripts, if you are using win7 and up, I'd recommend use powershell. If this is only for your computer you could also use other scripting languages by installing their runtime, python, ruby ...etc, they would be overkill but would work well and expand even better. This is if you know programming languages already.

skwire would recommend ahk as well as that is what he used to create the app. 

as for examples, first link on google is this which looks good.

pilgrim:
vixay,

Thank you for your reply.

maxview is way too big, not to mention the cost.

As I put at the top of my original post my OS is XP-SP3 and any sort of programming beyond very basic batch files is beyond me although I have had a look at AHK since skwire suggested it.

Frameless does everything I wanted in my original post and from my point of view I doubt it could be improved on, it's small, it allows me to position images exactly where I want them, the only addition that I can think of would be to set the images to close after a given period which I might look into when I have the time, for now I settle for closing them manually.

vixay:
oh see this https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=18081.msg162996#msg162996
I forgot that it had gone payware later. Anyway I am glad it worked out for you.

skwire, what did you use to write frameless? I don't see any source in the bundle or link on the website, I'd thought you'd done it in AHK and was curious to look at the code.
