Run in a Rectangle
Quote from Krakerman on December 7, 2021, 4:43 pmI noticed that the Run in a Rectangle object seems to run an application fullscreen then resizes to be within the rectangle. Is there a way to run an application and have it only show within that rectangle and not display first before moving to within the windows rectangle object?
Thanks

Ones that I have work seem to run outside VNW then it appears to show up within the VNW rectangle however the application is like full screen within the rectangle so it is not fit to the width and height of the rectangle and you only see the upper left section of the application.
Maybe someone else can chime in on this with there experience, Just try MSPaint as an example and see for yourself. If you do manage to get it to work properly what is the trick and how do you get the application to fit to the rectangle so in essence shrink to fit.

Within your RunInRectangle command, what is the exact filename you use for the paint program ? (I am running on Windows 10)

Looks like something got lost in translation.
In order to reproduce your problem on my computer, I need to know what parameters you are using with your RunInRectangle command ... please post it here or upload a tiny pub with a Rectangle and a Button with the command.
