Sir. Nice program concept, but still won't work properly. Bar now appears but

when moved, the corresponding page does not respond at all under Vista home Premium. Still a very nice program that

should have been part of Vista for UMPC.

More power to you sir!

Thanks so much for taking the time to port this WinXP. This is going to make a few apps so much easier to use! A serious "Thank You" from a Q1 XP user.

Thanks!

When I heard about the first version I was disappointed since I'm still running XP, but now I'm a happy camper. It works just great so far for me.

Got it working. But does not work in

Windows LiveOne care under "start a backup". Scrollbar appears but corresponding oversize window does not

respond. Seems will not work with 3rd party programs? Works well in core Vista

oversized dialogue boxes though.

Thank you for your time and great effort in developing this software! CHEERS!

tested on XP and works perfectly, thks a lot !!

otherwise, I noticed that the scrollbar appears only with partly-hidden system windows, but not with partly-hidden 'normal' applications' windows, is it the intended behavior?

The scrollbar does not work with all windows.

I've purposely restricted it to non-resizable dialogs, with the assumption that if the window is resizable you will be able to get all of it into the view (either by moving it or by hitting the maximize button which should force it to fit on screen). Otherwise, I discovered, the scrollbar kept popping up all the time even when I didnt need it which was very irritating (to me).

Note: Some dialogs force themselves to remain centered on-screen. The scrollbar can't override their behavior. Other dialogs (there are a couple Advanced Option ones inside Outlook) clip themselves as they render on screen but dont give you a way to access the clipped contents. No way to get these to work either. Unfortunately it's hard to predict and address every case ...

I was one of those who reported that v. 1 of the scroll bar utility would not work on my Q1 with Vista. I am happy to report that this new version does work now.

oh yeah what does Vik use? umpc wise?

What software does he perfer?

what software does he make his cartoons with?

ink or qwerty?

does the need to be portable stop with the professional use of tech or like me is it sweet to take the perks of the biz and be able to do personal internet and tech via on the fly? exmpl airports, truck stops, the park, or almost anywhere when a spare moment arise?

any concepts of the future on umpc's? exmpl market break thru to a younger demand generation with impulse buys. a umpc that can be pluged into a xbox360 controller and game cartriges snapped into said controller. (go ahead if ya make millions on that idea just shoot me a free bee to play with!)

any partnering concepts? seeing umpc's are mobile computing future. like cell phones are for telephony will umpcs soon be sold in kiosks in the mall with mobile contracts to said phone companys?

interaction conecpt with umpc's? exmpl like the wii will you be able to scroll a umpc screen by tilting it or clicking it by a tap on the side verses the screen?

just ?'s and ideas on future posts if you dont already have a slate of ideas.

welp back to making that oh mighty dolla (why is it kids need to eat anyways?), laters

Can the source code be released if it is no longer worked on at sourceforge? Reason I am asking is I find it useful but I find the scrollbar to be too wide when it shows on the rightside and I would like the scrollbar to work horizontal as well.

Thank you for any information.

I am using UMPCScrollbar on Win XP SP3, with a specific Windows application that is not resizable. The scrollbar never appears for me. Any suggestions ? Thanks.
