Re: [Dx4win] Issues with RTTY Control Panel and Win 7
1. This is normal for DX4Win. Only open the RTTY window when you are using it. 2. You do not want to Maximize it you want to Restore it, but computer semantics aside, this works fine here so I'm not sure what's amiss Karl. 3. Known issue apparently without resolution. Paul purchased a run-time package to do the skinning only to find it was buggy and the vendor unresponsive to issues.

Re: [Dx4win] Issues with RTTY Control Panel and Win 7
Are you using any type of SKINS in the Screen preference window?? If so, try again after setting your preferences to NO SKINS SELECTED. I had strange windows problems when trying different skin settings so went back to the normal windows.
