Detecting the clicks in the window is the issue. Without installing a global mouse hook (yuck, DisplayFusion used to have this and it caused too many performance issues) there isn't a way in XP to do this, sorry. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#9 Mon, 14 Mar 2011 21:57:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#9 DisplayFusion So, you say, it doesn't work only on XP. Fun! I'll try to implement test example:
1. Get window handle under cursor (without hooking middle button);
2. Call SetWindowPos, MoveWindow or some WinAPI funcs.
Hope this method will work. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#8 Mon, 14 Mar 2011 20:03:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#8 DisplayFusion It looks like a normal window, but Reader X introduced something called a "sandbox" which prevents any external applications from interfacing with it. DisplayFusion in Windows Vista and Windows 7 can interface with Reader X, but not in Windows XP, sorry. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#7 Mon, 14 Mar 2011 17:17:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#7 DisplayFusion Strange. It's window looks like very common window.

Ok, I'll switch to 9 version of Reader. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#6 Mon, 14 Mar 2011 16:03:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#6 DisplayFusion Yes, downgrading to Reader 9 or upgrading to Windows 7 will fix this issue. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#5 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 17:08:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#5 DisplayFusion I tried with DF 3.3, Windows XP Pro Eng with all updates, Reader X 10.0.1. Seems like it doesn't work for me.
If I downgrade to Reader 9 will it work? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#4 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 02:20:05 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#4 DisplayFusion Can you try updating to version 3,3? Also, unfortunately this option won't work with Reader X in Windows XP (if that is what you are using), sorry. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#3 Mon, 31 Jan 2011 16:49:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f#3 DisplayFusion Beta 15.

If you're using the latest Beta 15 it should work. The current public version (3.2.0) doesn't work with Adobe Reader X. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f Sun, 30 Jan 2011 09:38:06 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mouse-middle-button-clickdragging-caption-doesnt-work-with-adobe-reader-x/?ID=0f2685bc-19ab-4d71-bd22-c2b8320e1e8f DisplayFusion I recently update Adobe Reader from 9.?? to latest X version and found that it's impossible to move Reader's windows to next monitor.
Still on Windows XP SP3 English. ]]>
