All,
I figured out the cause of the PokerStars refresh issue. PokerStars will always try to keep the aspect ratio the same on the table. So if you want the width to be something other than 800, you need to assign a number to the height that scales with your change from 800. Default is 800x580. You can find your target height by:
1) Doing the math
2) Open up a table and PlaceMint at the same time, with PlaceMint attempting to set the target width. Close PlaceMint, this should leave the table at the target size, but with bars at the bottom. Give the the table focus and press F5 once. PokerStars will resize the table to match the aspect ratio. You can then use a program like AutoHotkey's Window Spy to see what the window's height and width are.

Check your PM box for a message.

hey buddy thanks alot for your help earlier again, but i have now encountered a new issue.

when i try to open the program i get this message from windows
"Placemint has stopped working.. windows is checking for a solution to the problem"

placement crashes whenever i try to config it. below is error message

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

jogden139,
I'll have to look into that. I haven't seen that error message before. Are there any buttons to view more details?

r0eKY,
That is caused by a bug with setting up slots with negative x and y coordinates. If you need a setup with them, you can manually edit the XML or roll back to v1.1, make the configuration, and then roll back up. The error only happens when configuration window is open and you have a negative value for x or y.

Regarding the problems with the Bodog regex .... I'm sorry I haven't had the time to look into this yet. I hope I will be able to do so this weekend. But don't expect this to be a promise.

Are you using HEM with Bodog?

Yes, I do. But I'm not sure if I have actually played on Bodog since I created the regex. Could be that I just opened the tables to test if PlaceMint works properly. But lately I haven't had time to play so I really can't say anything about this until I try for myself.

I'm just using a short (Table1|Table2|Table3) for the stakes i'm playing which is sweet your's is all bodog tables in this format right?

It's HEM table HUDS jumping in the placemint slots when I only have 2-3tables open like if I'm switching to a fishy table mid session at present I just close the table manager while switching and relaunch it after but there is no way to have placemint identify bodog tables without using the table name which it seems HEM HUDS are also labeled as....is this correct?

I will post something over at the HEM forums I don't know if it's simple/mission for the them to change the labels attached to the bodog huds but it can't hurt to ask.

Okay, I quickly checked this and your analysis is spot on. The table HUD and the table share the same name causing the constant switching. It probably wouldn't be too much of a problem for RVG to change the Bodog HUD names (they probably would change the HUD names in general) so if you could approach them that would be awesome. An alternative could be to filter out this special window class in PlaceMint. But that would require IrishThug to do some additional programming (... hint, hint ;-)).

As an aside ... if you exclusively play 6max tables you needn't use the table name identification method. You should be able to use this regex instead:

Grovel and beg....

I have a man crush on these guys.

Good to see that the Holdem Manager guys seem to be receptive to the suggestion. I'll put a window class option on the consideration list. If I do it, it will be after the native stack support release.

@IrishThug

will ExecDec's suggestion in the HEM thread solve the problem?

(Cross-post from my reply in the HEM thread)
The problem is that both windows use the exact same name (the Bodog table and the HEM overlay). There is nothing in one to distinguish it from the other. RegExs can do powerful things, but when two things both use exactly "Table1" and nothing else, the regex will match both cases.

I think I get it so adding (overlay) to the HEM HUD title would make it possible to filter out the HUD ?

Correct.

This doesn't work anymore on ongame after the last update (new client),
can anyone fix this? please.

Did the stars tournaments stop working for anyone else since the update?

Just trying to follow along here...so the there will be a HEM update at some time in the future that will resolve the bodog swapping bug? Will this be in an upcoming beta release?

Cross your fingers, you can have a look over in the HEM thread the link is a few posts up.

yes, hopefully somebody has a fix for it soon

Please notify us in this thread when HEM programmers change something.

NP

HELPPPPPPPPP........SOMEBODY FIX POKERSTARS PLEASE!!! THANKS!!!

Somebody please fix this!!! I cannot live without this program.
