Resizing the visualization window
When I first downloaded Winamp, the visualization window was a normal size. Then somehow when I opened Winamp one day, the height of the window was a lot less. For some reason I can't resize it, even when I try it with a different visualization plugin. Right now I'm using the MilkDrop plugin, and I have Winamp v5.08.

I've searched the forums and I can't find an answer to this. I really hope someone can help me.

have you tryed detaching the visualiser then resizing it?

Yes, I have tried that, and it didn't work.

Thanks for the input though.

Could you by chance have it docked in the AVS editor? That's all I can think of. If you can't figure it out, you might need to reinstall Winamp. And don't feel bad about it, I've had to do so 21 times already. :p

Ooh, that was actually something I hadn't tried, but it didn't work. I think I will just have to reinstall. Thanks, though!

Is this problem still there with classic skins?

If so, try enabling 'enable smooth window resizing for resizable skinned windows' in the preferences>skins>classic skins menu.

I have no idea how this would be with modern skins because I haven't installed modern skin support. (due to speed losses with AVS) Might be the same. dunno.

That's a good idea...I tried it, but no dice. I am doomed to reinstalling, heh.
