I just stumbled onto this program looking for anything I haven't tried to help multiboxing. This program is very nice for handling multiple accounts.

I do ask, if not too much of a problem, to add the capability of adding not just EVE clients to the window list but Browsers, EFT, EVEMon among others.

And the previous request for hotkey assignment to the windows would be very nice, I second the motion....

You all keep up the great work. It is appreciated very much.

Odd and completely random question. Will this work with Windows 10? Reason I'm asking is that half the planet may upgrade to it this year when its released, and wondering if this will work with it.

Yaay!!!!

Not since 1.18.3. I'm in the process of moving into an apartment and adjusting to my new full-time position so anything I was working on has been put on hold until after the first weekend in February. I don't know StinkRay's plans.

I run it on Win10 at home. I have yet to update my home install to the newest version, but I don't think anything has changed that would cause it to not work.

Great. Microsofts offering it as a free upgrade to windows 7, and wanted to know if my new favorite program would work with it. Ty for the great work fellas.

Why not?

Maybe I understand the program wrong, but thought it used AERO to display the other screens. Wasn't sure if windows 10 would include it (think they switched to metro or something).

I could be completely and totally wrong though. It did warrant the question as Microsoft tends to break everything every new OS release, and this would be considered a non-microsoft app.

Well, it runs using C# and Window's DLLs. In theory it should work, I simply haven't had the time to install Win10 on my old desktop. In a few weeks when I move into my new apartment I'll install the OS and verify if this program works with the Win10 beta. Until then, I'd need confirmation via screenshots to mark it as "compatible".

Do you know why the preview is all white?

I have never seen that before.

What OS are you using?
What were you doing before it turned white?
Have you tried running the program as Administrator? (Right-click-->Run As Adminstrator OR change it in the EXE's settings)

--Is your EVE client in Windowed or Fullscreen? Ths program does not function correctly if the client is in fullscreen.
--Is Windows AERO enabled? The bottom of the EVE-O Preview settings window should look like this if it is enabled: http://i.imgur.com/Gs2PusX.png . This program cannot function without AERO being enabled.

EDIT: Ok, so from what I can gather so far

1. Start up EVE and the Preview, screen is white
2. using WIndows 7


I'm pretty sure the problem here is that AERO is disabled. I don't see any transparency in that screenshot

It looks like the resolution is set to 0/0. That or you have a multi desktop program running in the background (only thing I can think of that would mess with aero.

Might be widgets also (start disabling programs and rerunning it).

Oh it might be one other issue. From the taskbar, right kick one of the eve boxes, click "maximize". If that doesn't work, go to the task menu (Ctrl alt delete), find each eve instance, right click, bring to front.

Ran into a issue where the eve game looked extremely squished in the window. That might fix it.

Yaay!!!!

I have read that some Stardock programs mess with Windows Aero. If you have any Stardock UI programs you might want to try disabling them.

This is outstanding. It should be used as an exhibit of what Windows Management for EVE truly is.

Awesome program! very customisable! and a great help in dealing with multiple clients!

One possible feature request though, would be great if there was some auto stacking feature for client previews horizontally or vertically. either that or some kind of nudging feature so i dont spend 20+ frustrating minutes removing the 1 pixel gap between my borderless previews!

:) not that im anal or anything!

Seems Windows 10 is now working as intended when using Build 9926!

I've been thinking about that for a while. Another way might be to include a togglable "move" checkbox for the borderless so that you can reposition them without having to switch to windowed and become frustrated with having to adjust blindly.

Awesome. I'll mark it as possibly resolved. Hopefully in 2 weeks or so I'll get to run some of my own tests on Win10 to make sure everything is 100%.

There is one thing, I'm not to sure if it applies to just Windows 10.

If I switch using EVE-O it remembers the size of the window, however if I minimize the window and bring it up using eve-o its not remembering the window size.
