If you run "Biab Restore Plugin Dialog Move to Mouse-64.exe"
you should see a little white "H" on a green icon sitting down in the system tray bottom right by the clock.
While it is running you hold the left Win key and X key (SORRY I just noticed I have it set to Z (~LWin & Z::)) so minimize the Plugin window, make sure you have the "H" in the system tray and use Left Win+Z

Sorry Pipeline, I just can't see any green H in my system tray.. Tried many times to start Biab Restore Plugin Dialog Move-64 and Biab Restore Plugin Dialog Move 2000-64 as administrator.. Just no H there as shown in ur picture above, and win+z still does nothing... Must be something I missing out...

This is the one you run "Biab Restore Plugin Dialog Move to Mouse-64.exe"
Biab Restore Plugin Dialog Move to Mouse.zip.mp4

You may have it set to hide system tray icons

Cool ! so I can go to bed now ?
Oh yeah I had the "H" as I was running the .ahk script, but yeah I added BB icons to the exe's. It may be in another dimension but the tool should bring it back to the mouse cursor.
Code:
~LWin & Z::
CoordMode, mouse,screen
WinRestore, ahk_class TDXPluginHostBBWForm
MouseGetPos, xposm, yposm 
WinMove, ahk_class TDXPluginHostBBWForm, , xposm, yposm
return

Thanks I'll do that soon.
They should make it so if you click on the plugin in the mixer and the window is minimized, it should restore it !

Totally agree.. That would be easy to do I guess?

I would also imagine that this would not be a difficult feature to achieve.

Leo - Glad you got that working, and I'm glad my comment in error did not throw you off. Pipeline - you are da man.

Just a quick comment on the "weirdness" factor of the BIAB VST Plugin window on *my* system. Just yesterday - it was hiding *behind* the main BIAB window and I had to fiddle around with switching the focus around to bring it to the forefront. My situation may not be typical though, but I have a single monitor and video card. It also seems that certain plugins like the Kontakt or IK Multimedia being active in the VST window can exacerbate the problem.

I've taken some careful notes on what you provided, Pipeline - very cool stuff.

I had the Hide button enabled on top of the Plugin Dialog so it was a lot smaller, I could not get it to show, after a lot of $^**# I found it behind the floating mixer !

Hey pipeline,
I was actually thinking of modifying a little utility application I developed a while ago to control windows but the autohotkey suggestion is genius.

Anyway maybe I will procrastinate about it, since I found why the style selection form was not responding, and having PGmusic team fix it is better in cost-benefit terms. (am referring to the style picker problem I was solving)
