View Full Version : TeaTimer Popup HowTo Resize Entire Window
Ok,
Before anyone jumps the barrel the wrong way...
I am trying to enlarge the "TeaTimer Popup Window" that displays when finding a new process while running the "TeaTimer". Currently you have to STRETCH that lil' window out everytime to read all that is displayed.
I tried fooling around with it using a method i found here:
ResHack:

Granted, ResHack (Resouce Hack) utility was rather nifty, compliant and stable but it was not the adjustment I was trying to make.
It looks like you have to make several edits to that windows script/parameters.
Anyone have some ideas or a fix on how to make it at least 2 or 3 times the standard size it is (width wise) without making it permanent so it can be resized (smaller or larger yet) if needed. Basically the way it is now just 2-3 times larger at initial popup ;)
Thank You!
I'm still looking for a solution on this or someone to help me decipher the scripting/program.
- Thank You

Which only does what I stated in my previous post, correcting an issue i'm not having (a jumbled/compressed window scripting error because of resolution or a simple mistake).

I found these items using these searches on the forum:
"resize teatimer"
...and then i tried:
"resize tea timer"
...using "resize popup" only my post here shows up :)
- Thank You Patrick and similar persons

Hello,
I am sorry, but that are more than 6 years old threads that you have posted in.
With the release of Spybot-S&D 1.6.2, this topic is done.
You may find old threads in our forum by using the search function.
The threads in our normal Spybot - S&D forum are not being closed like this is the case in the Malware removal forum.
So if you have a support question you should keep an eye on the date of posts.
The best way might be to open a new thread of your own where a helper can volunteer.
Best regards

Incorrect, I was the person who started this thread on 03-22-2011, just a few days ago.
And Yes, It was corrected where the buttons were jumbled as I noted the link. But this in reference to the default sizing. I know there were many compaints about this. I had waited for future releases to fix this, that was several plus years ago.
As a recap, "TeaTimer" - How To Resize the "Prompt/Popup" that asks for confirmation to Allow/Deny. Basically, a LARGER default size that is 2 to 3 times the original defaulted. This is so that you do not have to manually drag the window out with "EVERY" prompt :D
You also noted that there are fixes for it on this website via forum search. I noted those fixes as well as a few of the search patterns used. Maybe you have some knowledge I do not and would appreciate any links you have to fixing this issue.

I'm guessing there are only a few lines that need editing, if someone would be kind enough to relay which ones I would be happy to toy with it.

Thats all, and thank you :)
I finally found the lines that seem to make a difference and re-centering takes place automatically. But in a pinch, such as dealing with and/or a screen size of 800x600 resolution; corrupt/default vid drivers due to what ever this window could be to large. However I am guessing that holding the "Text Width Size" to "600" should help to deal with that.
Using part of the idea found here:
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=122
and extrapolating...
There are 5 lines I believe to make a difference and while not perfect should help the nagg of resizing/stretching the popup notification window everytime your prompted and thus to be assured your "A"ccepting or "D"enying the correct items:
There seems to be two parts to make this work,
object formRegistryWarning: TformRegistryWarning
ClientWidth = 351 to 700 (width overall?)
Then, the text line width is the next culprit that seems needing to adjust:
object labelInfo: TLabel
object labelChange: TLabel
object labelValue: TLabel
object labelOldData: TLabel
object labelNewData: TLabel
The default of these are all something like 257? So why not up this to like 600 plus?
Note the "compile script" and also "save" (missing in thread 122) :)
The only other item is in the case of too small of screen-resolution, such as 640x480, you may have to shrink these popup notifications or adjust the "TeaTimer.exe" using ResHack and the recompile/save method as listed in thread 122 noted previous or replace it with the original backup created by ResHack :?
Any ideas?
Thank you for the ideas, help, and edit!
p.s. i sent out a few dozen questionares on this for input *shrug*
