dave, is there a way to make it easy to swap the tables between the slots? my layout (2 monitors):
13 57
24 68

if I try to swap 8 and 3, it seems that 1 and 8 are swapped.

If table swapping does not work reliably, there is likely something wrong with your layout ini file - post the contents & I will fix it for you [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

_dave_,

You fixed my .ini file earlier. It would be nice to know what is wrong with our files so if I want to change my setup I can do it myself without having to bother you. (My 'auto-swap tables' problems has gone away entirely! THANKS!!!)

A couple semi-problems I have noticed.

If I open up PokerStars, then open PokerTracker, then start StarPlanner...StarPlanner doesn't move PS to the correct 'slot' and sometimes moves the PS lobby 'slot' to the default PS position (center of screen 1).

If I open up PS, then StarsPlanner, it works perfectly. Then I can open up everything else and it works fine. Does StarsPlanner depend on PS lobby being the active window when it opens? And why does StarsPlanner change my .ini file without me specifically trying to change my layout?

Also, sometimes when I rebuy chips it 'hangs' on the 'how many chips' screen.

You can see the HMC screen being made active, then the PS lobby being made active, and back and forth very quickly.

It is almost like StarsPlanner...

looks for the HMC window
finds it
then StarsPlanner interrupts itself
looks for the lobby
finds it
then looks for the HMC window again
rinse and repeat over and over.

If I point to the 'OK' button in the HMC window and click very, very quickly, over and over I can get it to go away, but the lobby is taking focus so quickly I have to do it over and over again. (Takes me about 10 to 15 mouse clicks, all within 1/2 second)

Don't make these issues a high priority. I can live with them. Great program, along with the others! Keep up the good work. We all appreciate the work you do!

Thanks again!

do you mind sharing your ini file? I also have problem swapping tables and dragging a table to a empty slot. thanks.

billxo1b,

I can't see any errors in your layout... what sort of troubles are you having? What should the layout look like - 4x2 tables across two 1600x1200 displays, with 4 more tables stacked on a third monitor to the right?

[billxo1b]

I have 2 1600x1200 monitors. my simple 8 table layout is like this
1st 2nd
13 57
24 68

so 4 tables on each monitor.

1. If I try to swap table 8 with 3, I drag table 8 and drop it onto table 3, but instead of swapping 8 and 3, 1 and 8 are swapped.

2. if the slot 4 (just an example) is empty, I had very hard time moving table 8 to this slot.

I did not see much difference between my ini file and yours. Maybe I should spend some time on the ahk script. thanks///

Hi billxo1b,

So I just copy/pasted your 8-table layout into my starsplanner, and it seems fine...

When you say you have dificulty drag/dropping the tables - maybe you are unaware it uses the top/left corner of the window to determine which slot to swap with?

I did. I tried hard to put the whole table exactly(almost) on the underlying table.
