Win 10 - Windows Snapping while dragging OD not working?

Post by Scott » Tue Jan 12, 2021 11:04 am

Hi,

We recently updated from OD 20.2 something to OD 20.4.35. We were using the built-in windows 10 windows snapping functionality to drag a copy of Open Dental to the left or right of the monitor and having it resize to 50 percent of the screen. Normally you would see a little graphic animation as you got to the edge of the screen and then let go of the mouse and the window would snap into place. After updating recently this no longer works. It works for other program windows, just not Open Dental. After further testing, using the keyboard shortcuts (win-key and left,right,up,down arrows) for snapping the window does work for OD just not the dragging.

Regards,
Scott
Good Bye Softdent!!

Yeah, that's gone now. See
https://www.opendental.com/manual/zoom.html
You'll see on that page that the dragging should work, but just not with the animation. I think there might be a bug that's preventing the dragging from working at the moment, though. We'll probably be able to get the dragging working again, but no the animation.
