Tony,
I love the simulators you made and I really appreciate the fact that I can enter numbers from the PC keyboard instead of having to use the mouse. They work really well. Just one question:
I'm running them in Windows 7 and I get a bleed through in the display of whatever is behind the calculator. I've tried to attach a photo of what's happening. But whether it is the desktop icons or some other window that is behind the calculator, a little strip of the background is bleeding through at the bottom of the number display of the calculator. Any idea how I can get rid of that?
Thanks!

I run the emulator on Linux/Wine and get the same.

I modified the transparency code and it seems ok here.
New download available.

It seems to be OK with the latest update. Thanks so much!
Love these.
You've done a great job with your simulators. Thanks for your contributions to the community!
I'm running the simulators on Windows 10 and found a slight bug there.
There's no way to minimize the calculator. Normally with applications in Windows 10 that have a hidden titlebar I can shift-right-click the application in the taskbar and choose Minimize (notice that with Windows 7 there was no way to do this; with Windows XP you could do it simply by right-clicking with no need to hold shift, but Windows 7 broke this functionality). However, no menu comes up when I do this.
Emu48 had the same problem when the titlebar was hidden. I fixed it there by putting in this line of code:
#define STYLE_NOTITLE (WS_POPUP|WS_SYSMENU|WS_MINIMIZEBOX|WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)
instead of this line:
#define STYLE_NOTITLE (WS_POPUP|WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)
Perhaps a similar fix is all you need for your simulators.
Tony, will there be an update to the HP-91 standalone file? I have the same bleed through on its display.
Thanks,
Bob

Just updated HP46, HP91 and HP97 which may have had the same problem

Hi Eric,
I didn't think minimising would be required in this type of application, but I will look into adding minimise menu item, or by keystroke.

I have added a Minimize menu items for CCE, HP46, HP91, HP97 and 9100B
Seems to work ok on my machine (Win7)
cheers

... the date on the web page for the 46 is off by a year (2016 vs 2017)...
Great contribution, many thanks!

Thanks for the quick turnaround. I can confirm that the minimize menu item works on Windows 10, but it's still not possible to minimize using the taskbar (either via the shift-click approach I mentioned earlier, or by simply left-clicking it while active, like you can do with any other program). I think you need to make a change similar to what I mentioned in my earlier comment to fix that.

I only have win7 so it may not be possible to do with my resources, but I'll look into it.

Hi Eric,
I modified the HP-97 emulator. I can now minimize it on my Win7 machine by clicking on the task bar icon. If that works for you I will update the other programs.
cheers

Thanks again, Tony. I hadn't actually tried the 97 simulator before. That thing is a beauty! Amazing job with that. I love the way the printer works.
The minimizing by clicking the taskbar button is fixed now. Thanks. Shift-right-clicking still doesn't bring up anything, but that's a very minor concern now that everything else is working.

Hi Eric,
Thanks for that. I have uploaded the rest of the models.

OK I'll reveal my ignorance...
Which simulators / emulators are you talking about? At which web site?

Ooh, nice. The 41 is my favorite (my 1st HP calc) but you have some cool stuff there.
Works for me under Linux Mint 18.1 (Ubuntu 16.04) under WINE (Wine Staging 1.9.23).
