Pin on top (Win 8.1)

February 11, 2015 8:55:55 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hi,

 

I love the pin on top thing.

Is there any way to do this for Metro Apps? When I use ModernMix, I can have them in a window. I woud like to pin this window.

Does anybody know how? The pin functionallity from WindowFX  doesn't work for metro Apps.

 

Greetings,

Andreas

Modern Apps are intentionally excluded from being able to be pinned on top for technical reasons.

And there in no "dirty" way?

I need it for Netflix. I don't want to watch in my browser but I don't use a TV. So the best way would be the Win8 app.

There is no dirty way, ModernMix will actively prevent apps being pinned on top regardless of the application you use.  If you want it on top you would have to allow it to be fullscreen.

Thats not what I wanted to use it for.

I tought ModernMix would draw the Border by itself and coud be pinned.

Ok, then I have to continue using my browser for watching.

 

Thanks for the answers.
