Removing Scroll Bars from the main window
Sep 10th, 2006, 3:04am
 
G'day,

When you run Vizwrap, you may notice that the program window is slightly larger than your screen, with horizontal and vertical scroll bars appearing.

This is annoying and is quite easy to fix:

When Vizwrap installs, a folder called "ini" is created under the VisualWRAP folder.  Typically the path is "C:\Program Files\VisualWRAP\Ini"  In that folder there is a file called "VisualWrap.ini".

Open up that file in a text editor like Notepad.  You can do that by double-clicking on it.  Scroll down until you see a heading that looks like this:

[ScreenSize]
-- other stuff --
PanelTrim=100
Try changing it to be  
PanelTrim=190

Save the file and run VisualWRAP again (shut it down if it is already running).  Hopefully that will remove the scroll bars on the main screen.  You can try other numbers to see what effect they have if that doesn't work.

This setting is needed to account for the fact that many different systems use different screen sizes.

Regards
Dave

Removing Scroll Bars from the main window - Vista/

Due to the security policies in Vista & Windows 7, editing the ini file directly may not give the desired result.  You may have to copy the ini file into a folder under My Documents, then edit it as above, then copy the file back into the ini folder.

DAve, thanks for that new info. I recently re-re-re-re-re installed VW (lmao), and instead of dealing with Vista and W7, I just used XP as my OS. I have teh scrollbar issue, which you fixed teh last time you took control of my computer. I've been playing with VW a bit the past few days, love making new pattern after new pattern.
