Actually, this has been happening since I started with 0.9.3, & could be a windows thing, but happens alot with SM.

Workaround: Right-click over SM in the taskbar, choose Maximise. TIA

does it help, if you right-click your SM start icon (desktop or start menu), select properties and choose "run maximized" in the proerty dialog?

Yes, but I keep having to do that.

Just so I understand infuzion, when you say "minimalized" do you mean that you don't see the SM window at all, just an entry on the Start Bar? Or do you mean that you see the SM window but it just isn't maximised.

We've noticed here that SM does not start in a maximised state. Instead it starts up the same size as you had it last time. If it was maximised last time then it will look the same size but it won't technically be maximised. This needs addressing.

However, I've not seen the software start in a minimised state so I just wanted top be absolutely clear what we're talking about here.

Thanks.

Yes... Usually if it opens "minimalized", it's just a StartBar entry, but sometimes it will pop up like 100x40px, & I have to stretch it.

& I think it is an configuration depeding how I close it; often I'll close it on the StartBar (right-click) while minimalized.

not life-ending, just a minor scratch. cheers

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
