Can someone please help me with a Regex for O-poker on Boss Media. I have tried the Details Grabber, but for some reason I can not get it to work with Boss Media. Thanks.

Kala,
That actually was a feature, but it had to be removed in order to support being able to stack windows. PlaceMint is not able to know which window is the topmost window in the stack.

FeelThePower,
It is possible to arrange windows based on those that in the ante (assuming that information is in the window title). You can use a regular expression to look for any number instead of a specific ante amount. If the expressions are created correctly, once the title of a window changes, it will move from the first group to the next.
If you post samples for each grouping you want, I can try and create the expressions. The more examples you give, the better the expression will be.
Moving tables to the other monitor for the special case of going deep might be tricky. The only thing PlaceMint can use to differentiate between windows is the title. You can not tell PlaceMint to allow it to be moved out of the stack and stop tracking it. If the windows title still matches the expression of a group, PlaceMint will always move the window back to the stack.

Kala,
That error screen means that another program has already registered a hotkey using Alt + Shift + P and PlaceMint can't use it. That is the default hotkey for pausing PlaceMint. YOu can change that by going to the Option and selecting a different hotkey.
The message about your xml file means that the settings file was not properly saved out and PlaceMint is reseting to the default options. Based on the fact that this happens when you first start your computer, I suspect you are shutting down your computer without first closing PlaceMint. This is a known issue because Windows has already started to shutdown somethings when PlaceMint gets the message to close and the settings file can not be properly saved. Instead you should close PlaceMint before shutting down your computer.

NCSU07 & TexDanny,
If that is the cause, you can make an expression that matches both of those titles.
Code:
.+\s(#\d+\s)?-\sLogged\sIn\sas\s
NCSU07,
It sounds like you have Ripple Forward enabled. This moves all of the tracked windows to the earliest avaibale slot and the empty slots to the end of the list.

jonathanjcr,
Here is a very basic expression. If you provide more examples I might be able to make it better.
Code:
-\sNo\sLimit\sHold'em\s-\sGoogle\sChrome
Raulsmile,
That sounds strange. There shouldn't be anything in PlaceMint where resizing one window depends on another. There may be an issue with OnGame where it does not properly register the resize event.

wombert,
You need to give me examples of the window titles you want to match, an image does not work. See the instructions.

JACKTEN,
Thanks for helping.

MMD,
PlaceMint will allow you to do that, but it will not move windows back to the stack after you fold. You can assign a hotkey to the stack and press the hotkey when you are done with the window to move it back to the stack. PlaceMint will not change which window has focus, so if a table requires action, but another window is brought to the front, the first window will not automatically become visible when you act on the second table.

3-Iron,
crapme is right, copy all the files to a new computer and it will just work.

crapme,
Thanks for helping.

hawassy & baztalkspoker,
See the instructions on how to ask for regex help.

Travbana,
Many clients require that the window mantain a specific aspect ratio and will prevent PlaceMint for making the window a size that is different.

RLOG,
Yes.

Setcho,
What do you mean by "the Details Grabber doesn't work with Boss"? If the details grabber does not show any information after you click on the window, then PlaceMint will not be able to match the window at all.

The details grabber worked now. I must have made a mistake when I ran it last night.

I have setup Placemint for 12 even tiles on my 30" monitor of 640*468, this works fine for party, stars and stars.fr but it doesn't resize the ongame window correctly, so I only see part of the table. Am I doing something wrong or do I need a different configuration for ongame?

Anyone that can fix this and the "blinking" I'll ship 20$ on stars. PM me.
has anyone found a solution to that? seems to be some kind of bug.

StonedShisha,
All of the PokerStars titles are matched by the PokerStars Tournament expression.
All of the Ongame Cashgame titles are matched by the Ongame expression.
All of the Ongame Tournaments and SNG titles are matched by the Ongame Tournament expression.

RLOG,
Many clients require that the window mantain a specific aspect ratio and will not draw the table correctly if the window is a size that is different.

pokerbiker,
Did you try the expression I just posted responding to NCSU07?

Thank you for answer. Looks like it will not be suitable for me.

ok i managed to almost make it work. but now the ongame tables just cut off two sides when they get moved into a space. i remember for stars u had to add a redraw function into the client. is there something similar here for ongame?

it tried it, i used this code for nl200

Code:
Holmia?(\s#\d)*
but something strange happens, as soon as i turn on the hem-hud, the tables start jumping around (3times a second, to a neighboring slot). never saw it like that.

when i turn of the hud/close hem, the tables dont jump around, and the hud without PM works fine also.
PlaceMint: Window Positioning Tool Quote

jcl,
No, nothing like that exists.

pokerbiker,
The HUD likely creates a hidden window that has a name that matches that expression. This likely causes PlaceMint and HEM to fight about where the windows should be.

ps some issue just appeared on my party tables out of nowhere. the tables r like flashing and forcing themself to the front so that if i click on anything e.g. the start menu on windows itll just disappear instantly as though i had double clicked it..

stars tables still work fine.

The problem is with ongame not properly redrawing the window when it is resized. I am using the standard Windows API to resize the windows. This works fine for almost all applications, but some poker clients are not properly handling the events.

The PokerStars "fix" is based off the fact that you can manually edit a PokerStars settings and make windows redraw when F5 is pressed. I suspect that this is a debugging feature that they decided to tell us about, rather than attempt to provide a real fix to the issue in their own code, when the issue came up with a previous window management program.

As for the Party issue, I suspect that it is related. Do you have Party and PokerStars in the same group? Does that group have Send F5 enabled? If the answer to those questions are yes, I suspect that Party is doing something that makes some small change to the window's size. This would then trigger PlaceMint to re-adjust the size and bring the window to the foreground so it can resize the F5.

In the end, I don't think I should have added the Send F5 feature. It has never worked completely right and it is the only feature that is specific to a single application. My intent was to always keep PlaceMint as a general purpose application. Attempting to keep up with the various idiosyncrasies of each site would be extremely difficult since I can not test every site.

I'm finding that if I open a table on my second monitor and there is a spare slot on my primary monitor it auto jumps into that slot from the other screen. Is it possible to disable this somehow so that I can have tables on my second monitor before all of the slots on the primary monitor are filled?
PlaceMint: Window Positioning Tool Quote
04-08-2012 , 12:30 PM
Disable Ripple Forward in the Options. This will allow an empty slot in any position of the slot list, instead of just at the end.
PlaceMint: Window Positioning Tool Quote
04-08-2012 , 12:33 PM
Just had a look and ripple forward seems to be already disabled. Any other options I may need to enable / disable?
PlaceMint: Window Positioning Tool Quote
04-08-2012 , 12:44 PM
You can enable Swap on New Find. This will place a new window in the slots closest to where it is first found by PlaceMint. It should also be noted that if there is already a window in that slot. The older slot will be moved to the first available slot.
PlaceMint: Window Positioning Tool Quote
04-08-2012 , 01:01 PM
Oh I think I know why, I don't have slots setup on monitor two. I'm guessing this is the problem?
PlaceMint: Window Positioning Tool Quote
04-08-2012 , 01:08 PM
Yes, that would also be a problem. PlaceMint will not place a window in a location that does not have a corresponding slot.
