Thus, if, as I usually do when annoyed by such window positioning, I move the window to a more pleasing position, it would forever be not a problem. And, yes, I get that some dev decided that shoving the window up there would keep it out of the way of the compose window that is being spell-checked. I disagree. My visual focus needs to be on the spell-check window: That's where the info is that I need to deal with, not in the compose window. If I need to refer to the compose window I am smart enough to be able to move the spell-check window if it is (doubtful in my config) obscuring the compose window. The truth is rather more mundane. Back in 2002 someone noticed that the spellcheck sub-window was always stuck in the upper left corner of the screen. So he fixed it. Or rather he attempted to fix it but didn't check if his fix worked or not. See line 47 of the folllowing link: http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=mozilla/editor/ui/dialogs/content/EdSpellCheck.xulrev=1.63mark=47#40 I'm in the process of fixing this as part of Bug 942548. See the second half of Bug 942548 Comment #2 for more details. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=942548#c2 Phil How did it come to pass that this is a Window on the Win version and a drop-dialog on the Mac version? I'm not seeing a problem with the Spell Check drop on the Mac version. Given that we're talking about Mac v Windows and Drop=down v window, it would be interesting to find out if the Mac Download Manager problem is with a Drop-down or window and if the Windows Spell Checker problem is with a Drop-down or window?? I don't regularly use the Download Manager, but I took a quick look and don't see any particular issue there...are others seeing a problem? One thing I can add though, is that when I encounter the random Master Password dialog and it comes up in a window like the Download Progress dialog vise a drop, is is still drawn short. I'm not sure how this is all implemented, but the error appears to stick with the drop/window it's encountered in no matter how it's presented. Sorry, my mistake, I meant Master Password sub-screen rather than Download Manager!!

It is sporadic, about 1/4 of the time. See the thread SeaMonkey Shutdown (started 25 Nov 2013) in this newsgroup. Thanks David: I read the thread but I'm not sure it is of any help. My system has been shut down for almost 24 hours yet after booting up for a new session, I still got the nag when I opened Seamonkey. I'm not a programmer or code wise but it seems improbable that Seamonkey was running while everything was shut down without power. And, I'm not much for creating new profiles. It's been years since the last time I did that and it was a horrible experience including recovering all my mail and bookmark files. Why that happened I don't know but at this stage I'm really much too old to risk what works well for everything else. I'll keep an eye on that thread to see if anything else pops up. azed13 O.K., azed, is it possibly that just before you did the update/install, you had a problem with Windows/SeaMonkey which caused Windows to shutdown?? If so, it is possible that the previously running SeaMonkey process had written a file to your disk drive to stop you starting another (second) instance of SeaMonkey. If SM had closed normally, this file would have been erased. The file is called something like parent.lock. With SM completely closed (including the quickstart function if you have it set up), do a Windows Find File or Folder looking for parent.*, then in Windows Explorer (making sure you ha Windows Explorer set up to display hidden folders), go to that location and delete parent.lock. Report back. Daniel: I can't recall ever having a Windows shutdown while using Seamonkey. BTW, I apologize for not stating that I am on Windows 7 Pro, X64 service pack 1. I did a search anyway and found 43 files with some variation of parent buried in them. None were in any Seamonkey folder and the newest one is dated January 2013. This is long before the problem started. I still get the nag at each start of Seamonkey and the message seems to indicate that the auto-update install file is somewhere in my system and still trying to install 2.22.1 which I have done manually. Oops! I missed the instruction to search with Seamonkey closed. I will search again and report back if the results are any different. Per my original query, I would still be interested in where that auto install file is located. azed13 azed, I think the auto-install files having an ending something like .mac, so if someone were to post the correct ending, you could do a Windows search for it and delete it. Daniel: Thanks again. Since I last posted, while working a different program (no Seamonkey session open and off line) suddenly a dialogue box popped up stating that the Seamonkey update failed for some reason I don't recall asking to download the full or complete file. I clicked OK and the dialogue box changed to connecting to server and downloading. I don't remember the full details. I do know that after about 15 minutes nothing happened and I cancelled the operation. My mystery problem appears to have been solved by another mystery. I no longer get the nag message. However, Seamonkey seems to take much longer to open. I'm not sure if that is because of Seamonkey or something on my system. I will watch what happens for a period of time to see if this is a persistent problem.

Screen readers and seamonkey don't like eachother. We have a user with a screenreader (Dolphin SuperNova) in the company and I hear nothing but complaints. We'll turn away from seamonkey soon anyway, so it is not much of a priority, but the point seems to be that the writers of software simply don't know about and don't support seamonkey. Sometimes they *do* support Firefox and Thunderbird, which surprises me because I thought under the hood those are much the same, but still there are problems that users don't have with e.g. Internet Explorer and Outlook. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: Moving Roaming Profile...

I have a Win8 desktop with two (2) additional drives, using SM 2.22.1. TIA - bo1953 1. Find the file profiles.ini. In Windows 7, it is in C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey, where xxx is my user name (David). 2. With SeaMonkey terminated, open profiles.ini in a plain-text editor (e.g., Notepad, Wordpad). You will see something of the form: [General] StartWithLastProfile=1 [Profile0] Name=David IsRelative=0 Path=C:\Mozilla profiles\SeaMonkey\David Default=1 I have three more entries for additional profiles. 3. If IsRealtive=1, Path points to the profile folder under the folder containing profiles.ini. If IsRealtive=0, Path is the complete path to the profile. In either case, find the folder to which Path points, copy (DO NOT CUT) the entire folder, and paste it where you want it. 4. In profiles.ini, change Path to point to the new location using a complete path and change IsRealtive=0 if it is not already 0. 5. Test SeaMonkey to see if this has been successful. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Help Troubleshooting Information]. On the Troubleshooting Information window, select the Show Folder button to the right of the Profile Folder caption. The location area at the top of the Windows Explorer window should reflect the new location. 6. Repeat steps 3-5 as needed for other profiles. Yes, test after each profile is moved. 7. If everything seems to work okay for a week, go to the old profile folders and delete them. WARNING: Do NOT delete or move the file profiles.ini. -- David E.

I show just text, Ive always felt the buttons waste valuable vertical space. I never noticed the Download Progress Progress even had buttons. It's only there for a brief second or two.
