Feature request: centerparent for all windows

Post by asills » Tue May 24, 2005 9:46 am

I have a dual monitor setup, and I've been doing a lot of merging lately and the merge wizard will only ever start on the primary monitor and not the monitor the Vault GUI is actually on. I assume this is just the form not being set to CenterParent for its start position.

Also, on this same wizard, what would be the chance of getting the merging, etc to be done on a non-UI thread. Right now I have to sit and watch the merge UI lock up for minutes while it's doing the work in the "background".

A lot of users will kill an application upon its UI locking up. Luckily I have "hope" that it's still actually working on my merge and it always returns, it would just be nice not to have the UI lock on me.

Good suggestions. I've logged both in our bug list. If the CenterParent thing is as easy as it appears, it will get done sooner than the other one.

Thanks.
