Can anyone advise how to stop BIAB opening to full screen? I would prefer it to be "windowed"...even if I window it while open, upon restart it always reverts to full screen, almost like it is "hard-wired" to do so.
Thanks

joden:
I recently had a "live chat" with BIAB Support on this subject. I was trying to do the same thing, that is, have BIAB open to a particular window configuration.
They advised that BIAB could not do that at this time. I have added it to the Wish List.
If you would like to see this feature implemented, you may want to visit that Forum and add a "+1".

Tiny can of worms.
I just happened to quit BIAB with Window bout 3/4 size.
After Matt so quickly answered my question, restarted BIAB
Popped up full screen the resized back to 3/4 size automatically.
Very similar to how windows normally do.

I can confirm that what seeker says works for me (2013 -366 on Windows XP). That is, it works when you just close down BIAB, then open BIAB.
However, I believe that when joden was talking about keeping the screen setup configuration after a "restart", he meant after a full shut down.
In that case, the opening BIAB screen reverts to full-size.
Anyone else with a different BIAB version or different O/S get a different result?

Yes that is the same here, it is after a system shutdown - you know , between gigs. I know it's only minor but when using a touch screen with the laptop in tablet mode, trying to touch the tiny window resize tab is a bit tough - means having to then unfold the laptop use the qwerty keys, or plugging in a mouse just to do this one thing.
I have a custom stand I built to accommodate the laptop (with cables attached) and an iPad so once it is set up - Look I guess I could re-size the window by starting up the latop on battery first before mounting it to the stand, but imho, why should I? When most windows programs DO remember a screen sizing in the .ini files they create.
Again, not a biggie, but one of those things that would be useful if implemented.

I have band in a box 2020 and noticed mine was starting to open in full screen mode (which I don't like). I found out when you click on the 'window' tab to uncheck fullscreen view, make sure 'plugin mode for daw' is not checked. if it is, uncheck it. Now when you close/exit band in a box and reopen it, it should not open in fullscreen mode.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
