I am starting wine with the command: wine explorer /desktop=Name,640x480 PPTVIEW.EXE myppt.ptt and I get the following error: [silentm@geisjdell PowerPoint Viewer]$ fixme:actctx:QueryActCtxW 80000010 0x3018b4d0 (nil) 1 0x34fb60 8 (nil) X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow) Resource id in failed request: 0x2e00007 Serial number of failed request: 13 Current serial number in output stream: 15 [silentm@geisjdell PowerPoint Viewer]$ If I start wine with wine explorer /desktop=Name,800x600 PPTVIEW.EXE myppt.ptt It does work. Why can I not specify a smaller window? Is this a bug? I am using 0.9.33 Thanks, Jerry

Is this a bug? I am using 0.9.33Smaller windows can definitely be specified; I just tried a 640x480 window with a current version of Wine and the game Riven. I am guessing that perhaps PPTVIEW simply won't create a window that small.
