Fix UMake for two monitor usage

[dot]

I use two monitors then I have two screens. UMake open on Desktop center, not Screen center. It is mean half window on one monitor, half on second. Very annoying,
I fix it. Now UMake opened on Screen center.
All other stay same.

Info about this tool and original version, can be found here: http://mb.link-m.de/umake/

Umake v1.1 fixed:

UMake-1-1.zip

I'll be damned....

A few days ago I had a pretty lengthy discussion on the Discord about UMake doing this very thing but I didn't realize it was multi-monitor causing it until this morning. One of my monitors went out and as soon as I disconnected it UMake worked right again. Your updated build no longer has this bug? If so then that's great news.

never had this issue but i LOVE UMake so i'm going to snatch this up just in case because i run 3 monitors so it's probably bound to happen at some time!

Yep.

because i run 3 monitors

Then previously UMake must open only in center 2 monitor. Fixed version must open in center of the current screen.

Confirmed fixed. I bought a new monitor last night, problem returned. Overwrote with dot's new exe and it worked perfectly.

Now, I can't figure out why porn pages keep popping up and my antivirus keeps coming on. I'll just turn it off... <-THIS IS CLEARLY A JOKE

If that is a joke, please make it clear. VirusTotal does not tell so. From VirusTotal's details section only the resource part (.rsrc) has been changed in comparison to the original UMake.exe (CRC32: DA99BF2B), but not the code section.

[JackGriffin]

I can't tell if you are trolling me back or not. Well done.

actually no, i have it in far left desktop window, never had a issue with it?

[JackGriffin]

It may be that it tries to center on the middle of the two monitor setup and so it renders at the very edge of the screen (the middle of the two monitors). Three may not have this problem because the center is in the middle of the middle screen anyway. Regardless the update fixed the dual monitor issue and I'm quite happy about that. It's very aggravating to have to drag that window on every compile.

Because your desktop not have same height for all screens. Look like for this case Delphi calculate Desktop center as Screen center in your first screen.
I have dual screens with same height and original UMake have issue.

@JackGriffin: I just want to mention that:

was actually ambiguous as a joke, hence:

I would suggest the usage of the proper emotes or the proper abbreviations, such as "/jk" to mean a "joke", or just a text, even if a small one with "(just kidding)".
Otherwise depending on the person, some will see it as a joke, others will not and mistrust this user for no reason.

And in my opinion there are some jokes which are better off not making, because of the consequences if it's not clearly understood as such.

Fixed. I forget sometimes that we are all high-functioning autistics that add "literally" to the end of everything. I'm not giving up on humor though, I'm just not very good at it.

The main issue is that you cannot convey tone over a written message, generally speaking, that's why things like notes, remarks and emotes exist.
I knew you were joking because I know you, but otherwise it would be ambiguous to me as well and wouldn't really be able to tell if you were joking.

Just convey the right tone using the existing emotes, expressions and such, and you won't have problems with people not getting your humor.

[JackGriffin]

Yeah, that mistake is totally on me. I told you I have a problem with humor. Things I find really funny no one else gets. My personality is 10% Asperger's

Better make that 15.
