i am using 6.15.3 on a vista OS with a 32 inch monitor.
I am unable to increase the VPW window to full screen without the program crashing.
the program opens with a window not full-size. any attempt to change the window size results in the program crashing.

this is part of the ini file to set opening window size:
AppMax=0 InitSize=211,56,2070,1426
KeepOnTop=0
MDIScrollBars=1
FileSelector=-228,1,1,1
SelectorTab=2
FileDlgPos=539,220
Instances=0

This isn't a major problem, but there are times when i need to see a VPW window in addition to another window on the screen.

i have an nVidia video card in this computer.

any suggestion would be helpful.

I can confirm that problem.
I am using Windows XP (32-bit) with 2 monitors (1680 x 1050 pixels each).
If I stretch Vedit application window into the 2nd monitor, Vedit crashes.

It seems to happen whenever App_Width exceeds 2048. It may not always occur immediately when the width is adjusted above 2048. If I adjust the size in small steps, it may be possible to adjust the size 1 or 2 times after crossing the 2048 boundary before Vedit crashes. In this case, the crash may occur even when adjusting the size smaller than previous size.

When the crash occurs, the following error message is displayed: "VEDIT Editor has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. ...", and there is an option to send error report to Microsoft.
