MDI Child Window Width Constraints

Post by DOStradamus »

When (O.K., "if" :) ) you get around to enabling MDI Child Window "Minimize", while you're in there, this would probably be as equally appreciated by us MDI-junkies, yet probably much easier to do:

Add Preferences Option:
Constrain width of new MDI windows to that of the widest currently open (bool)
Rationale:
I like to have to (or more) files opened literally side-by-side, usually in a TextPad (Parent) Window >1000px in width. Even if I'm stretched across 2 of my 3 monitors, all new documents opened (amusingly) stretch themselves "from London to Vladavostok", and must be resized befor I can continue working. If I could check a box so that they'd open with the width of the widest of the open ones I have, sure would be neat!

TIA
