After installing, I try to alt+click and drag, I get weird results. I have a hi-res screen (3200x1800) and as a result needed to change Windows text size from 100% to 200%. Now, when viewing a web page, I am viewing it at 200% so that it looks like a reasonable size. When I try using alt drag, the app only responds when I click in the upper left quarter of any window. When clicking in any three of the other quarters, there is no response. Or, sometimes, when scrolling the focused window with the mouse in the right bottom quarter (for example) the window under the focused window will scroll instead. Is it possible that when screen doubling like this is enabled, Alt drag can't understand it properly in the latest version? Would love a fix! Alt drag is awesome and I am sure thousands can't operate without it!

Update: seems to work correctly in some apps (Skype) but not others (Chrome)

Hi! Try the high-DPI fix discussed here: #7 (comment)

Let me know if it works. This might be a way for me to reproduce this and if so I might be able to make a fix on a normal display.

Great fix!

Possible to get a warning to appear inside on the AltDrag control panel if this kind of situation is detected?

THANKS AGAIN!

Okay, so that worked. Great! I'll test this tomorrow and see if I can replicate the issue myself.

Ok, it is mostly fixed for all apps... except for Skype. Whenever trying to alt-drag or alt-resize Skype, whatever other nearby/underneath app suddenly gets brought to foreground and starts moving or re-sizing. It's like the Skype window doesn't exist. Ideas?
