runtime error 384

[Beowolf]

Version 2.8.1

Occasionally, and so far unreproducibly,  I get runtime error 384 when starting the jukebox.  On clicking 'ok' on the error, the jukebox closes.

I reapplied the 2.8.1 update and the program works again.

The error message is: "A form cannot be moved or sized while minimized or maximized"

From limited googling, it seems it means exactly what it says.

That must be a result of me adding the functionality where SKJB remembers where it was on the screen.  I'll see if there's anything I can do there (i.e. just put in some code where it's putting the main screen back to where it was to skip that error, if it comes up).

I think if you just check that the program isn't minimised or maximised before you resize or move it you should avoid the error.

That was a horrible sentence.

Considering the problem is intermittant for you and I've never seen it before and the fact that I'm sizing/moving the window BEFORE restoring the window state already.... it's one of those inexplicable problems I just have to patch up (i.e. by ignoring the error when restoring the position).

Would forcing the window state to normal before resizing work?

Force it to normal
Resize/move it
Restore the previous state

Relax, it's already taken care of
