Is there any reason why my pending checkins window stops expanding after a
while for all my projects?

thanks

I am not very clear about the scenario you described, would you please give
us some detailed information or a screen-shot about it?

Thanks for your understanding.

after i open a project i go to View--> Pending Checkins Window. In my
environment, a title bar for pending checkins appears at the bottom of the
IDE collapsed, then when i click it it expands. After i've been developing
for a while for some reason when i go to click on this window it no longer
pops up. I would assume this is some bug in the IDE that won't be fixed thru
this news post, but thought i would give it a try. I"m using VS 2003 and
Version Manger source control.

thanks

actually i made a small mistake. The title bar for that window dissappears
from the possible windows at the bottom, then when you go back to
view-->show .... the title bar appears, and then when you click it it
doesn't expand.

Hi TS,

Thanks for the response!

It appears there is some displaying problem with the Pending Checkins
Window inside VS.NET 2003 IDE. Can you dock and add it as a tab toolwindow
beside the Solution Explorer?

By the way, does this problem occurs before, what's the original position
of that window in the IDE. Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the
Version Manger source control in order to restore that window to its
default position?

Thanks!

sorry i didn't scroll down to see the rest of your post.

The window always appeared as a tab at the bottom along with the find,etc.
When i move the whole toolbar set next to the solution explorer, i haven't
had the problem recur.

I won't be able to attempt the unistall/reinstall because of protocol where
i work.

does this help at all?

thanks

Is this alright? Usually this would be the default position for the
Pending checkins window in VS2005.

Thanks!

like to view each line without scrolling real far.

thanks

OK, I got your concern on this issue. However we couldn't repro this
problem in our local machine. Can you repro it on any other machine without
that third-party addin (Version Manger source control)?

If the problem still exists in a clean VS2005 environment, I suggest you
may submit this issue to our product feedback center, our development team
may communicate with you directly on the issue there:

Thanks for your understanding.
