Like a drawer---
Hello Pierre !
- I guess this is :
• If you have a window of XnView which doesn't fit the screen, moving it on any edge of the screen makes that it's hidden like in a drawer.
• Then, just a stripe remains visible; when the mouse-cursor hovers the stripe, the window reopens automatically.
- Example : the small info-window of MotherBoard Monitor (if you know it…)
Kind regards

No, no , no. I don't know how to explain, I'll try later, it's the same as in winamp, skype, mp3tag... (all freeware).Clo wrote: Hello Pierre !

Carry a plugin…
Hi All !
¤ Indeed I know the Winamp feature to move both its window and a plugin one together.
- So, I would call this rather "Auto-hook" or "Auto-stick"…
"Dock" is a secundary window that you can show¦hide via any way, usually a tree, and the most times at the left side of the main window; i.e. : like in the Web browsers, or the damned classic CHM TOC¦Synopsis (I hate that !)

This could be indispensable whether we would have some "active plugin" later, let's say for instance an extra customizable tool-bar which could be hooked to the XnView window when reduced, and moved with it on the screen…
Kind regards, cordialement,

• Same here, but there is a case where it could be useful -not to stick the adjustable size window at the edge of the screen-…(I use XnView Maximized most of the time, and don't care about its position when I reduce it). …

Yes, very useful, for me.

It would be useful when you need to move main window from one side to another often...
