I updated to Beta 5 and I'm really annoyed that my windows aren't remembering their positions and sizes like they did in Beta 4 and previous. When I open the program, all windows are maximized. Restoring one window causes them all to become restored to a smaller size, but they are cascaded nicely in one corner and don't take up their previous positions or sizes. If I open any other window, such as search, that window then opens fullscreen, causing all other windows to open fullscreen until you restore one.

This would be all fine and dandy because I know its beta software, but the fact that I can't remain using Beta 4 really pisses me off. I tried Beta 5 when it was first previewed, and I went back after seeing this bug. Today, when ApexDC++ told me that Beta 4 had a "serious bug" and that I had to upgrade, I did so with the assumption that the current Beta 5 had been fixed since that initial preview. And now they're forcing us to upgrade. Whatever.

Erm, we are not forcing you to do anything, we were just informing. You can freely downgrade to B4, if this really annoys you, but I do not think it's worth. Moreover, this was the first "bug" I reported some 5 years ago back in the PWDC days, so it is hard for me to believe that it is been worked on now.

This is part of StrongDC 2.1 which AP is merged with. SO it's not a bug, it's a feature.

It's a real observations.
I posted in 6.01.2008 when ADC++1.0b5 it's was in testing period.
Satan insist it's not a bug but it's a bug authenticaly(in StrongDC 2.1)!Windows aren't remembering their positions [try to open search,one hub(you choise) and favorite hubs for example and try to operate with these windows in main aplications (please no use cascade :)).
In my opinion the feature it's improvement of aplications!

Whatever ADC++1.0b5 for moment (whichtout this bug) it's very stable!

It's not a bug because it was removed ON PURPOSE. Bug means something that happens but it wasn't intended to. This is SUPPOSED TO happen.
