Don’t know WHY you felt the need to fix something that wasn’t broken. Now with 8.0.2.0, whenever I turn on show frame, and then click the title bar so I can drag the window where I want it in the game client, it minimizes the game client to the desktop. Brilliant! That’ll sure make it easy to position the window to where I want it, huh? Zoom always expands in the same direction, no matter which anchor I choose. Brilliant! Guess I should just place the window in a random location within the game client and hope for the best, huh? EDIT: A right mouse click/hold or click/drag the frame label allows dragging in the game client, but only if the client video is in windowed mode. In fullscreen mode, it forces the client to minimize and show the windows desktop. In either mode, zoom anchor is all but useless. No matter what anchor you use, the window always expands from left to right and downwards. So, placing the window at the bottom of the client produces nothing desirable if you’re trying to zoom. Video in the thumbnail also doesn’t seem to update. Just a frozen image until I go back to that client. Used to be, you could use this to park an alt next door to a system you were ratting in and watch for changes in local. Not now. ---

Just to be clear - fullscreen mode is not supported - and doesn’t look like it ever was… You don’t need to turn frames on to move the preview windows. You can right click them and move them - and even resize using BOTH mouse buttons - this is not new functionality. If you have issues with Zoom - you could raise them on the github as an issue and in our discord server and we will take a look. [EDIT] Have done this for you : [Eve-O-Preview - Issue 81](https://github.com/Proopai/eve-o-preview/issues/81) . Better yet - download the source and fix any issues and create a PR for us ! **[EDIT] - There does seem to be a bug with ZoomAnchor not applying if EnableClientLayoutTracking = false in config. - might even be bit more to it doh** - I have made a fix for this which I have just pushed to github : [Github - Eve-O-Preview - Fix for Issue 81](https://github.com/Proopai/eve-o-preview/commit/6188d00865a601567de3fd54a7cc904cec861cc1) Preview window updates - if you have minimize inactive clients setting on, then WINDOWS will not update any preview windows for those clients. Eve-O-Preview is using a windows feature (dwm) to create the previews and windows OS will not update minimized clients - thus Eve-O cannot. If you have a number of specific clients you wish to keep updating, but still use minimize for the rest - you could use the documented **PriorityClients** configuration option (none of this is new) **Once again - any issues - more than happy to look at them if you wish to raise them on our Discord - Link is in the OP.** ---

Everything is fine then suddenly one of my clients will bug like this where all my previews disappear and it’s like that client window is stuck at the front of everything else, I can’t even get a browser page to display on that monitor.

Just an FYI that for whatever reason, probably because Windows 11 is ■■■■ and Microsoft are clowns, that creating a shortcut or pinning Eve O Preview (latest version) to start menu both are blocked by Smart App Control, which cannot be manually told to allow it. Running Eve O Preview directly from the exe works fine. ---
