With the addition of the seperate tab window, I have taken Mauz's advice to
shrink the browser down and stick the tabs to the left side of it to appear
as it once did. However, when I do this, the browser doesn't store its
location and so when I start the browser back up on my next visit, it
appears on the far left of the screen instead of where I want it. Please add
this to the next version.

what I did was put the tabs on te far right, atop the browser so it isn't in
the way...on occasion I simply hit <F> to remove it altogether and only
bring it up when I need something from it. It seems to have stayed where I
placed it...always on the far right when I re-open the browser.

[View Quote] Try to move or resize the main window slightly away from top right corner
of Windows desktop. Maybe start by letting a narrow slip of background
picture show beside the top and right sides of AW browser,
then close AW and come back to see if the change sticks.

When I complained about this "feature" during beta,
I got a reply that it is probably meant to prevent
the close/resize icons moving outside the desktop area,
and they may fix it later along with bigger changes to GUI.

I do not understand what is so f**king hard to put it back where it was,
nicely to the left. Nobody likes the current one, yet they insist on having
it the crappy way. In 3.6 it seems it is still floating around like
something that do not belong to the browser.

Nothing wrong with fullscreen, one could for example press alt + f7 or
something, to get in or out from it.
Still no excuse of having a tabwindow ON the other windows. When the tabs
are on the windown, it is hard to walk straight forward and if one have it
so big that it is actually useful, it covers the chat window also.

I havent had any of the problems discussed here. Maybe something in
the ini file got corrupted?

check the following section and items (the numbers here are mine)

[layout]
main_x=293
main_y=18
tab_x=82
tab_y=18

maybe delete the items (not the section), see if the next time it
works?

just guessing,
Alex
