View Full Version : Source-level debugging problem

Hi,
I already know how to use OllyDbg for full symbolic debugging and it works well for me.
Now, when I switch to source code view and press F7 or F8, the window is automatically reduced in order to fit in disassembly window. It seems the size can be only toggled between maximized view/reduced view.
And that is the problem: I need to resize the source code window according to my needs (the size is acctually too small for me), so how can I set user-defined size?
I hope Olly didn't hardcode it...

you can dock them side by side and stretch the mdi windows to your size and it works fine as far as i know and i can watch it being f7nned or f8eed
in both source as well as disassembler window at the same time

i have a screenshot of what iam talking about if you think what i say would satisfy your requirement post a mail address or some uploadable address so that i can send it

Thanks, oh me anon, for answer.

When I try to dock the reduced Source window, it always get maximized even after single mouse click.
If it is really working for you, please send me the screenshot to

Dear mazegen,

here is the Screen shot of what iam talking about
while it is setup like this i can f7 or f8 and see both the disassembler window and
source window at the same time

if you restart and want it to stay the same
go to
options ---> appearance-->general
and check mark the
restore window positions and apperance check box

if you want to look at sorce window in full
click the maximize button in source screen

if you want to view disassembler window in full click the maximize button in disassembler window

Oh my Anony,
many thanks for your effort and please excuse my ingorance. It seems I have to learn some basics about windows, even though I thought I'm not a beginner. The Tile horizontal and Tile vertical do the job, so I'm happy now

Again thanks
Have a nice day
MazeGen

Hope in the OllyDbg 2.0, all windows will have the dock style

you can dock what ever window you wish even now TQN
if you wish to have all windows open use tile windows vertically or horizontally
in windows --- menu

if you have two windows open each will be given half the space
if you have 3 open each window will get 33%
if you have all windows they will divided by equla space of your
screen size
i sometimes operate with 15 windows open at one time and i am able to see all of them at the same time they are mostly dump windows of some
of the pointers that are open

Thanks oh me anon.
I known about tile/cascade windows in a MDI app. But they are not same as docking windows.
