Chatty (app): Windows move when reopening them

[C0Nd3Mnd]

When using Chatty and opening a window, then moving it, closing it and opening that same window again, it resets to the position (after about a second) that PersistentWindows remembered.

Here's an example:

SB4jKk9cWq.mp4

The problem is that when I'm trying to use the application fast that the window moves around which might cause me to accidentally press a button I didn't intend to press or whatever.

It's a Java application (don't know if that makes any difference).

In latest releases (5.19/5.20), user can exclude a window from auto restore by Ctrl+Shift move it, please try.

PS. moving window with mouse (wihout Ctrl+Shift hotkey) will enable auto restore again

[C0Nd3Mnd]

@kangyu-california That works fine, however only if I always use Ctrl + Shift. Is there a way to permanently exclude a window (even then, that will disable restoring functionality when it's actually needed)?

[kangyu-california]

Its very difficult to specify an arbitary window using config.

Will try to cut the latency from 1s to .5s in next release to make window recovery appear more smooth

[C0Nd3Mnd]

Would it be possible to limit restoring windows to when the computer wakes up from sleep (or when the monitors were turned off)?

[kangyu-california]

Will add a new command switch to disable real time single window restore, which happens when user unminimize a window.
The feature is necessary for other scenarios where OS forgot the previous location and randomly assign an unexpected one.

Fixed in 5.21
In case the issue still exist (especially after PC sleep), run PW with -fix_unminimized_window=0
