FOr Smip and those who want to minimize KR

abracadabra · 28th June 2007, 05:01 PM

I hope this helps Smip with her Norton's permissions window stuck behind her KR game. Unfortunately I cannot register on that other forum for unknown reasons to post a reply to her there, so here goes a possible solution. Try raising Windows Task Manager with Ctrl-Alt-Delete, hit Applications tab, then right click on KR and minimize it. Another way if you are in game and want to get to a program already on your taskbar is hitting Alt-Tab. It should let you rotate through your different apps already on the taskbar.

Or if your classy like me you can hit Win + Tab to use the oh so super Vista program changer!

Anyone found a solution of how to make the game full screen size but windowed? Like UO:2D.

I believe that is a bug to be fixed in the future.

I was just about to post about that...

Thats a major major thing for me! And its one of the reasons that UO is such a great game, cos you can play and chat and do other things without constantly having to alt-tab your programs! Please fix and i will provide cookies!

I wonder why we are not able to maximize the window itself. In 2d we can maximize, minimize and i can't remember what the secondry button is called. KR is either minimize or the secondary one ... maximize isn't an available option. It would at least open the whole window area so we can utilize more of the black area.

Yeh Mum you've hit the nail right on the head!

I hope this will get fixed!

ps isnt it strange, that its features like this that make you realise how great 2d UO is

pps - Is there a forum about putting stroke on all items in UOKR? that would stop the blurryness of items!

A poster on UO U.Hall asked about the windows task bar and Jeremy supplied an answer which covers mine/ours about maximizing ...

Some players who IM while playing will not be seeing who's trying to get in touch with them. Is there a way to get the taskbar to shown over KR?

We're working on a "maximized mode" or, actually, a way to simply dynamically resize the UO window. I'm not sure if it'll make the next build, but I saw it yesterday and it looks solid.

(Stretching-across-multiple-monitors isn't in this fix - that is something else on our list, though.)
