What's wrong, and with what software version?

Operating System: Windows 10
CEmu version: 1.1 beta (executable date: march 17)
Describe your issue:
Upon first start, CEmu fills the full height of the screen.
Part of the CEmu window is beneath the windows taskbar and cannot be viewed or reached.
In trying to resize the CEmu window (by dragging its top right corner) the window completely disappears to a location off screen and nothing can be done anymore.

In my opinion there are two issueas at hand

  1. At initial start CEmu sizes its window to full screen height. Please subtract taskbar height from full screen height to calculate window height.
  2. Resizing the window makes it disappear to an off screen location

This looks like a mix of what's explained here: #234 (comment) and a Qt/Windows issue, I guess.

BTW, there are more recent builds - choose the "Development" tab here: https://ce-programming.github.io/CEmu/download#modal-wizard-64-bit-release-static
Try resetting all your settings (the menu item "Reset CEmu") and launch it again, just in case

I did click the development tab and took the 64-bit Windows version from there.
Now I've entered into the dungeons of "Advanced Download options" - "Browse MSCV builds" - further down into the latest date folder. Quite a trip...

"subtract taskbar height" is quite windows-specific (and even then, some people don't have it at the bottom, for instance), so we'd have to find a generic solution to this.

That said, it may just be linked to #238 (comment)
So, I'm closing this one as we'll solve that other one. Once that's done, feel free to re-open this one if need be.
