Groupy 1.02 available

January 30, 2018 11:38:24 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Groupy 1.02 is now available with a bunch of little quality of life enhancements and fixes. And no, we haven't forgotten about saving groups. Stay tuned... Available from your store account or http://storage.stardock.com/files/current/Groupy1.02_setup_sd.exe. 

  • Adds: support for changing the hotkey for international users
  • Adds: option to only group when right button is also held down when dragging
  • Adds : Option on Windows 8/10 to hide all taskbar buttons for windows in a group bar the active one (under more settings drop down).
  • Adds : Three dot menu now offers Close all windows in this group option which sends close to them all.
  • Adds : Three dot menu now offers ungroup all which ungroups the windows in the group.
  • Added under more settings an option to show or not show the inactive tab preview image.
  • Added in the option to pick the inactive tab / bar colour for focused and non focused states.
  • Fixes: ungrouping an autogrouping window getting regrouped the next time a window opened
  • Fixes: hide taskbar buttons option not working on Win7/8 (does not work with Modern apps, as they are special...)
  • Fixes : Issue with Win10 virtual desktops with minimized groups on a switch showing the groupy bar.
  • Fixes : issue with Win10 virtual desktops auto grouping windows from the wrong desktop.
  • Fixes : Dragging a maximized group from one monitor to another monitor no longer causes tab group to switch monitors.
  • Fixes : Auto grouping now works correctly when only group windows of the same type is enabled.
  • Fixes : If you minimize a maximized group and then click on the taskbar button of another member of the group it no longer shows up non maximized.
  • Fixes : Tweaks autogrouping which may help with an issue reported where the first group didn't show the tabs correctly.
  • Tweaks : Now defaults to tinting the bar based on the tab colour vs a pale grey as before (existing setting, changed default value).

Thanks for the update!
I'm loving Groupy!

I noticed a little problem with this new feature:

  • Adds : Option on Windows 8/10 to hide all taskbar buttons for windows in a group bar the active one (under more settings drop down).

I'm not sure if it's a known issue or not, but it doesn't hide UWP apps.  On my system, I've got Skype, Pushbullet, Hip Chat, and Facebook Messenger (UWP) all in one group.  However, on the taskbar, I always see the Facebook Messenger button.  If Messenger is the active app, I only see the one button.  But if any of the other apps in the group are active, I see their button along with the Messenger button.

From the notes above : Fixes: hide taskbar buttons option not working on Win7/8 (does not work with Modern apps, as they are special...)

I am afraid UWP apps do not respect the documented Microsoft method for removing them from the taskbar which is why they will remain when in a group.

Well now... guess it would have helped if I had read ALL of the patch notes before replying... hahahaha!

Sorry about that...... carry on!

there is still a bug with tabs size in windows 8.1 when display scaling is not set to 100%

here is an example with combined tabs for the explorer and windows display set to 125% :

when placed above rather than combined, the tabs end up being too large.

hope this help.
