Summary0003543: MediaMonkey doesn't expand to fill in the empty space when the taskbar is moved
DescriptionIf you undock your taskbar in Windows, move the taskbar in example to the left side of the screen, and then try to maximize MediaMonkey, it is maximized wrongly. The right way is how it's done when the taskbar is docked.

Tested in XP.

Also, there is problems with rendering maxmized states when the taskbar is moved around. Here is how it looks like when I've just moved the taskbar from the left side of the screen to the bottom;

I've yet to figure out how to undock the taskbar, but I've never heard a single complaint about this. Setting to 'low'.

Right-click the taskkbar and press something like "Unlock task bar". Moving the task-bar around (which people does) causes several problems, and I think this should have High priority for 3.0 release.

Edit: Added the file Problem.png to show what I experience:
- That the window doesn't get maximized the right way - creating a gap on one of the sides as viewable in the screenshot.

Ok, now I understand. I can only reproduce with the following steps:

1) Unlock taskbar
2) Maximize mediamonkey
3) Move taskbar from bottom to left
-->MediaMonkey resizes correctly horizontally (it shrinks), however, it doesn't expand vertically to fill in the space left by the tasbar that was moved from below.
4) Minimize and maximize mediamonkey so that it correctly fills in the screen
5) Move the taskbar from the left to the bottom
-->MediaMonkey resizes correctly vertically (it shrinks), however, it doesn't expand horizontally to fill in the space left behind by the taskbar that was moved from the left.

Setting to 'high'.

This could be related to the fact that MediaMonkey doesn't refill any newly-made space. One more repro;

a) Unlock taskbar.
b) Move the taskbar up (making the taskbar bigger) --> MediaMonkey correctly downsizes.
c) Move the taskbar down again (making the taskbar thinner) --> MediaMonkey doesn't do anything.

Another report: http://www.mediamonkey.com/support/staff/index.php?_m=tickets&_a=viewticket&ticketid=4829

Media Monkey does not open correctly in full screen if I have my taskbar on the left side of the screen instead of the bottom

Repro steps:
1. Make sure that taskbar is on bottom
2. Maiximize MM
3. Dock Taskbar to Left

-->MM does not fill the entire screen. In contrast, the same set of steps with Notepad works as expected.
