If you open the settings window, click "check for updates", then close the settings window, the update check will still work because it runs in a different process from the settings window. I know it's a bit annoying not having it be a modal window, but unfortunately with the way our framework is structured it would be too much work to change this small thing around. I hope that helps. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cosmetic-issue-already-up-to-date-message-box-not-modal/?ID=13abcd0d-ed61-4e44-b9e9-fdb465bfd765#5 Fri, 29 Apr 2016 13:43:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cosmetic-issue-already-up-to-date-message-box-not-modal/?ID=13abcd0d-ed61-4e44-b9e9-fdb465bfd765#5 DisplayFusion I'll forward that over to Jon and see what he thinks. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cosmetic-issue-already-up-to-date-message-box-not-modal/?ID=13abcd0d-ed61-4e44-b9e9-fdb465bfd765#4 Wed, 27 Apr 2016 20:03:05 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cosmetic-issue-already-up-to-date-message-box-not-modal/?ID=13abcd0d-ed61-4e44-b9e9-fdb465bfd765#4 DisplayFusion Something like this?
