I have to admit that it was a bit of a mess, but hopefully it's sorted now.

since this version when I run it for first time it opens larger than my full screen (1440x900) ?? - I have to re-size it down - is there anyway to make it open as it used too?

oh and also the RS counter is now at 1.9 Billion... up from 0.7 billion just the other day... so ive used 1.2 billion in RS codewords in few days - so over the 35 days ive been online for I must have gone round the clock a few times... it must be 4 billion like you say and therefore the RS Percent starts to creep up as its not a true representation - maybe good if you could get DSL stats to record the RS to keep its own count.

That's weird, mine opened small and I had to resize and make it larger.

managed to fix

1) resize to the size you want it too open all the time
2) hold down CTRL then close the app

next time it opens it should open same size as closed

ive not yet tested too see if it works after a reboot though, this tweak works with most resizable windows and apps

I feel that this must be something to do with Windows. DSLstats saves its window size and position on shutdown, and restores these values the next time it's started. The implementation of this hasn't changed since the early days of the program. You can see the saved values in dslstats.ini, in the section headed "[position]" (the values are in pixels). So it seems that something is overriding the values saved by the program.

[Edit] Just an afterthought - looking at the image you posted above, snadge, it appears that DSLstats is maximised (if I understand the buttons at the top right correctly), so I wonder if clicking on the Restore button would restore the program to its saved size and position.

I wouldn't worry too much about it Eric.   It only happened the first time after I updated, I resized to make it larger and its been fine since.  It wasn't tiny, just smaller than I usually have it.   It wasn't a problem and I only mentioned it because of what snadge said,   I wouldn't have bothered otherwise.

Thanks for that, but because I have no personal means of testing DSLstats on recent versions of Windows, I do want to keep alert to possible issues like this.

I re-sized mine by accident, I assumed it would take the same size snapshots it didn't so I just maximized it so they would be the same from there on out. Though I would like to return to the original size, maybe add a reset size button somewhere?

all I did was unpack the new version into the old version folder asking to overwrite everything, then upon first launch it was open full screen but not maximised.

I can't explain that at the moment, snadge. Is it behaving as it should now (i.e. if you close it down and restart it, does it come up with the same size and position)?

it only worked after resizing then closing whilst holding the CTRL button down, this is a trick in windows you can use to make windows open applications to max etc

I have a feature request which would make DSLstats really impressive.  ;D

How about a left/right scroll button for some of the graphs thus avoiding the cumbersome sideways movements of the mouse or perhaps the scroll wheel could be used for this purpose?
