You know, the best way to adjust window sizes by default is to set it the way you want, then right click on the channel/query/etc. window on the channel bar and choose Position > Save. I think on older mIRC versions, there was a setting for Save as Default, but it's the same idea. This is also how you can make certain window types always open minimized rather than maximized.

also i right clicked on the query window and clicked 'save defaut'

and it added

wdquery=190,649,195,314,0,1,0
wquery=190,649,195,314,1,1,0

but when someone whispers me, the query window is still maxmimised..

i want my channel windows maxmised, but not query windows, it seems mirc doesnt allow this

did you already have a window open to them
do you already have a value saved for that nick
do you have the tile option for windows set with the windows maxed for the channel(s)

get everything how you want it, restart mirc and see what you get

I think so, my mIRC windows have always been crazy. Even now, mine opens minimized and when I click on it on my taskbar it's this tiny 1 inch by 5 inch minimized window on my desktop. Every time I have to maximize it. Course it could probably be a setting. I've messed with the settings in the past and it never would save what I changed so I just grew to like it.

In my settings file:

[windows]
main=0,739,0,274,1,1,0

Has always been set. First number I would guess is the start point at the left of the screen ie the: x. I know the second number is the resolution width from the left to the right (the: w). Next is the y start from top. after that is the height, the h.

So:

x=0
w=739
y=0
h=274

--------------Edit-------------
3rd number from the right is the status of the Maximized/Minimized/Taskminimized.

0=Minimized on desktop
1=Minimized to Taskbar
2=Maximized full screen

As for the last 2 digits, I haven't a clue.

It may be best to right click and do Reset All if you're having issues.

Then, minimize any query window and right click and choose Position > Save Default. Make sure that you don't maximize it in the process of saving the default setting. For channels, make sure one is open and maximized, then save it as default with it maximized.

I have no problem with query windows automatically minimized and channel windows maximized by default. Keep in mind that if you double click someone's nick, the query window won't appear minimized... only when the window is created by an incoming message.

No, it's the way MDI in windows works. If one window is maximized, they all are. Best you can do is this:

Code:
on *:active:*:{ 
  if ($query($active)) { window -r $+(",$active,") }
  else { window -x $+(",$active,") }
}


If you think it's a bug, complain to Microsoft :tongue:

You have to activate the window.
