my main monitor resolution is 1920* 1080, and recommended scale is 125%
my second monitor resolution is 1920* 1080, and recommended scale is 100%
s+.net working fine on main monitor, however, it always add a /up whenever I draw gesture if office applications (word, excel ec.al.) and notepad++, i.e. it becomes /up and /down if I just draw /down to minimize. Some other applications sees fine, i.e. explorer, chrome.
If I change both scales to 100%, none is working. s+.net only works if i changes both scales to 125%

I'll have to take a look at this, what version of Windows are you using?

Is this something to be handled in stokeplus, so we don't have to deal with the lower resolutions after changes?

I can't seem to reproduce this issue.
I set my main screen to 125% and my secondary left at 100% and everything worked as expected.
You didn't happen to set StrokesPlus.net.exe to scale with DPI or anything like that (via Windows, not something you can do in the app), did you?

I changed setting for programs that not working well with stokeplus. I right click the exe file, i.e. notepad++, go to properties, compatibility, and changed setting for override high DP scaling behaviour. I believe my problem may come from the different size of monitor. My main monitor is a laptop 17 inch, external monitor is a 21.5 inch AOC monitor. I found some similar issues for people using stokeit, details can be found here. https://www.tcbmi.com/st...t/forum/read.php?3,59040

What's your screen orientation?
Meaning, which screen is on the right and left?

I simply cannot reproduce this :-/ Try installing this: https://www.strokesplus.net/files/StrokesPlus.net_Setup_0.4.2.7c.exeThen run this script and let me know what it shows - it display a message box, but also copies the data to the clipboard so you can easily paste it here: Code:var scrInfo = `Virtual Desktop:
X: ${sysinfo.VirtualScreen.X}
Y: ${sysinfo.VirtualScreen.Y}
W: ${sysinfo.VirtualScreen.Width}
H: ${sysinfo.VirtualScreen.Height}`;
var allScr = Screen.AllScreens;
var dpiX = host.newVar(clr.System.Int32);
var dpiY = host.newVar(clr.System.Int32);
for(var i = 0; i < allScr.Length;i++) {
scrInfo += `
Screen: ${allScr[i].DeviceFriendlyName()}
X: ${allScr[i].Bounds.X}
Y: ${allScr[i].Bounds.Y}
W: ${allScr[i].Bounds.Width}
H: ${allScr[i].Bounds.Height}
DPI-X: ${allScr[i].GetEffectiveDpiX()}
DPI-Y: ${allScr[i].GetEffectiveDpiY()}`;
}
clip.SetText(scrInfo);
sp.MessageBox(scrInfo, "Screen Info");

Hi Rob,
Trying to work around kinda the same issue here. Only thing that has changed and started the issue with SPnet is adding a 4k monitor @ 200% font scaling, in addition to my usual 1080p monitor.
80% of my apps work properly, internet browers, video player, games, freetube, notepad, explorer etc
Problematic apps are mediamonkey, steam and some others.
1) Problem with wheeling the mouse as they're getting minimized and focus is given to any working app under that now backgrounded window. Nothing happens if a problematic app is the only open windows on the desktop. (I tried playng with the settings of course to no avail)
2) and that's the main problem: regardless of where I start the gesture, an extra gesture line appears maybe ~3-500px away towards the top right of my starting point, changing the whole gesture to be a \ down + my gesture - gesture.
Note: If I just right click and hold for 2 secs and release, the cursor is moved to that said point where the "ghost" gesture would have started.
Using your script I get this info:
Virtual Desktop:
X: 0
Y: 0
W: 3840
H: 3240
Screen: SAMSUNG
X: 0
Y: 0
W: 3840
H: 2160
Screen: SONY TV *01
X: 914
Y: 2160
W: 1920
H: 1080
I had to remove both the DPI script lines
DPI-X: ${allScr[i].GetEffectiveDpiX()}
DPI-Y: ${allScr[i].GetEffectiveDpiY()}
as it was returning a error:
allScr[i].GetEffectiveDpiX is not a function
Any help would be much appreciated and sorry for my english, hope it is clear enough.

So, after trying many monitors ans % of font scaling it is obvious that S+ doesn't support well monitors that have a native resolution over 1080p combined with scaling for some reason... under windows 7 should I add. The higher the scaling the bigger the deviation in SOME softwares only and over 150% (200% for instance) even the mouse scroll start to select windows under the active window instead of just scrolling like normal. Will try with w10 when I upgrade my computer and move to LTSC later next year. Else I will just ditch S+ and move to linux. S+ is really only why I stayed so long under W7 but it seems I don't have much choice in the end. Edited by user Tuesday, December 20, 2022 11:33:28 PM(UTC)
