Yes, I am losing the bottom of the display too.

I am using Windows XP Pro.

Other than that it works perfectly :)

Subject: [electrem] Help test the latest Windows version of ElectrEm!

Well, I've put together a proper Windows development environment for the first time in a

little more than a year and have been working on what will be the next release of the

Windows ElectrEm. There are some emulation differences (most notably the fast tape

improvements, the ROM writeability fix which had been causing Citadel to be broken and

the disk stuff) but my main concern right now is the Windows native GUI.

Please could those who feel like volunteering download http://members.allegro.cc/

ThomasHarte/preview/ElectrEmTest100406.zip and give it a quick test? In case of

download problems I'm also going to upload to the Yahoo Group associated with this

mailing list. The main thing I'm concerned about right now is whether the addition of the

menubar causes the bottom of the display not to appear. A quick way to test this is to

switch to a full graphics mode and try drawing a line, e.g.

MODE 0 [enter]

DRAW 1280,1024 [enter]

And see if the line reaches the bottom left corner or if it intersects the bottom of the

display slightly right of the left edge. Another quick way is to switch to a graphics mode

and keep pressing enter until the screen starts scrolling - if the cursor appears to have

vanished off the bottom of the display then there is a problem.

If possible, could people tell me their full OS version and whether they see the problem? I

certainly have it on XP Home SP2, but Ewen Roberts who first contributed Windows GUI

code didn't seem to see it. So this is really a straw poll about whether I need to implement

a work around.

I hope to implement a volume slider into the preferences dialogue, update to use the latest

CSW.dll and fix a menubar visibility bug related to starting up in full screen mode, then the

Windows version is probably good to go onto the website proper.
