Windows 10 Start Menu Not Displaying correctly

yanisdb commented 4 years ago

Good evening fellow users of Bug.n,

I've noticed a small bug while using Bug.n with Windows 10. Opening the start menu (Windows Key) in full screen isn't working properly. The menu is only taking a little bit more than half the screen.

I've submitted a screenshot to illustrate the problem:

I would be happy to fix the problem myself but I am fairly new to Bug.n and I don't know Windows "that well". Although, if someone would be kind enough to guide me through it, I'm sure I could be of some help.

Thank you and long live to Bug.n, I love it so MUCH!

Sorry, I could not reproduce the issue. I tested with Windows 10 1903 and bug.n 9.0.2 with only the following lines in Config.ini (almost vanilla):

Config_showTaskBar=1
View_#1_#1_layout_#1=2

Retrieving the window information while the Start menu is open (pressing WinI) I got the following:

ID: 0x2405ae
class:  Windows.UI.Core.CoreWindow
title:  Cortana
process:    SearchUI.exe [5400]
style:  0x94000000
metrics:    x: 36, y: 12, width: 784, height: 726
tags:   --

Config_rule=Windows.UI.Core.CoreWindow;Cortana;;0;;;;;0;

The window width looks odd, since my monitor is 1366 px wide and the Start menu seems to be fullscreen.

Which versions are you running, and did you add any specific configuration variables e.g. Config_rules?

Edit: I posted two comments, read both before trying anything, the second one brings a lot of information.

Ok, so it took me some serious digging to find out what was the exact problems. First of all, I tried your Config.ini file, which worked perfectly. So obviously the problem was coming from my Config.ini file. Starting, from there, I started commenting some blocks of the config file and reloading to see if the problem was gone. This way, I was able to find the exact line causing the problem: Config_barWidth=15% The width of the start menu changes with the percentage: at 100% it's normal and takes off my all screen while at 15% it takes a bit more than half. At 0%, the start menu takes exactly half the screen. I also tried to see if it could be related to other settings like the verticalBarPos or the horizontalBarPos and other settings but it doesn't seem to be. But, I then tried a Config file with only "Config_barWidth=15%" and it doesn't produce this bug. So it obviously has to be related to another line. I'm currently trying to figure which one. I'm attaching my config.ini file if you want to take a look or if you want to try it yourself. I'll keep digging and keep you updated.

I'm in the Insider Windows Program so I have a preview version (Windows 10 Insider Preview 18995.1 (vb_release)) but in regard to the previous discoveries, I don't think the version of windows is related.

My config.ini file: ` ; bug.n - tiling window management ; @version 9.0.0
