We are a business and always have both the Browser and Email windows open in
Win XP. These are both checked to open when SeaMonkey starts. The default use
to be Browser first, then email to the right. If somehow this order was
changed, you could put them in the order you want, exit SeaMonkey, and upon
restart it would open with the window positions you had upon exit. The latest
SeaMonkey update starts with Email on the left, and the Browser to the right,
and will not remember these if changed and restarted. It is a small thing, but
the reason we use SeaMonkey (and always used Netscape) is it lets us customize
much better than IE.
Does anybody know how to force SeaMonkey to open with Browser on left and Email
on right, on the Win XP task bar. We have multiple computers and SeaMonkey
profiles, so consistency is important.
Thanks Michael Gordon.
I am talking about the System Task Bar with the Clock. Either a Windows XP, or
a SeaMonkey update, changed this behavior. SeaMonkey always use to reopen its
component windows in the order they were in when we last closed the program,
but now when opened, it always forces the SeaMonkey Email component to open
first, and be closest to the Start button.
We always have SeaMonkey's Browser and Email windows open on the System Task Bar. We are
an internet store, and frequently are replying to customers emails with links to specific
products on our html website. Those are the main programs we have open, and use
constantly, throughout the day. While we may also need to open Excel, an HTML editor, an
FTP program, etc., it is always handiest to have the SeaMonkey Browser window open to the
far left on the System Task Bar (closest to Start button), and then SeaMonkey Email, and
then other programs to the right of these, which get opened and closed throughout the
day. When this order changes, we have to spend more time hunting the correct window on
the System Task Bar to click, instead of just "knowing" where it is.
Its an annoyance more than anything, I just don't know what changed in one of the
updates, but it effected four computers at the same time, so this is not a one computer
"preference" setting. I have done a work around by only having SeaMonkey open
the Browser, and then we click SeaMonkey's Email icon to open the Email component to the
right. We have multiple SeaMonkey Profiles, so it is just one more step every time we
open SeaMonkey. I was hoping somebody knew what changed, and a simple fix.
Sorry, Bill, when I replied, earlier in this thread, I thought you were
trying to arrange things on your desktop, but, reading the above, it
seems you're trying to arrange things on your taskbar.
I think this is a function of Windows, *not* SeaMonkey!! Have you
recently done anything to Windows System which may have changed things??
