Ulf3000 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I'm using this awesome tool for windows called "actual window manager". it hooks into the window and provides additional options and control. publisher and designer´crash though when the tool trys to hook their windows, the tool works on pretty much all other programs without problems. would be supernice if you guys could look into it , i guess its only something small to resolve.

walt.farrell Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Perhaps more appropriate to suggest to the developers of Actual Window Manager that they debug their code, and fix it so it doesn't cause issues with the Affinity programs. It should be their responsibility to work properly with the programs they try to control, rather than the responsibility of all programs to work with Actual Window Manager (and any other alternative window manager that may be developed).
