Options

This tab allows you to configure the program, but also contains a variety of options that were not included in the other tabs.

Minimize to tray - if this option is turned on, then the program is minimized to tray and its icon is displayed there. Otherwise, the program icon is displayed in the taskbar. If the icon is displayed in the system tray,when you hover the mouse on it you can see the version of the program. By pressing the right mouse button brings up a menu with which you can close the program.

Start minimized - the program automatically minimized immediately after start.

Table under mouse bring to foreground - the program will automatically bring to foreground and activate the table, which is under the mouse.

    Work with Winamax lobby - If this sub-option is enabled, the room's main lobby will also be activated when hovering over it with the mouse.

Remove topmost style - if you have situations where tables become on top of all windows, enable this option. It will monitor this and disable the "on top" style.

Auto check for updates - WinamaxCaption will check for updates at running.

Fix stuck Ctrl - if you sometimes have a bug with the Ctrl key sticking, try enabling this option.

Reset hotkeys - click this button if some of the hotkeys stop working while the program is running. If this helps at least temporarily solve the problem, then see point 4 here.

Auto reset - automatic hotkey reset.

Alternative method of a mouse processing in HUD - if clicking on HUD panels and moving HUD panels does not work, you can use this option as an alternative. This option has one side effect - it cannot handle clicks on invisible parts of the HUD, so it will not work for invisible panels and on invisible parts of panels with transparent backgrounds.

Popup table whenever action is required - the program will automatically activate tables with hero action. If at the moment of activation the move has not yet been made on the previous table, then the tables awaiting activation will be queued. In the future, the tables where the least time is left until the end of the move will be activated first. 

Mouse jump to table - if this option is enabled, when the table is activated, the mouse cursor will also jump to the table (this can be convenient when playing without a mouse). Using the gear button, you can set the point on the table to which the mouse will move. 

Even if the same table - by default, the mouse will not be moved to the specified point if it is already on this table at the moment of table activation. However, if this option is enabled, the mouse will move to the specified point of the table in any case. 

Don't steal focus - if this option is enabled, then the auto-activation of the table will be done in an alternative way, which does not lead to the active window losing the keyboard focus. 

Disable if main lobby has focus - auto-activation will be paused if focus is in the main lobby. 

Activate by Time from act - if more than one table requires activation at the same moment, then by default the program will select the table on which the least time is left until the end of the move (the total time is taken into account, including the time bank). If this option is enabled, then the table on which the most time has passed since the move was received will be selected for activation. 

Prevent disconnection - this option tries to simulate activity in the lobby to prevent disconnection of the poker client. This option doesn't work with minimized lobby!

Playground options

Process playgrounds - enables playground support. By default, playground support is disabled in the program - this is done because the program cannot always distinguish between opening a table and opening a playground, which can lead to confusion, due to which the program will not work on some tables. For this reason, enable this option only if you are going to play in a playground, and otherwise leave it disabled.

WinamaxCaption only supports Stack type playgrounds, when exactly one table is displayed in each separate playground, and there is a table selector on the left:

The playground should be cropped so that there are no empty areas on the left or below and the table occupies the entire area of ​​the playground. In the stack mode, the poker client always activates tables itself, regardless of whether the auto-activation option is enabled in the settings or not. At the same time, there is a bug in the poker client, when it occurs, the auto-activation process may freeze. To partially fix this bug, the following option was made:

Auto activate tables in playground, max N attempts - if this option is enabled and the poker client activates a table where there is no hero move, the program will try to switch the stack to a table with a hero move. Sometimes the poker client may not respond to switching attempts, so the program will make several attempts, the maximum number of which N is specified in this option (by default, no more than 5 attempts will be made). 

Allow manual switching via table selector - if this option is enabled, the program will allow you to switch tables manually with the mouse via the table selector (otherwise, when trying to switch to a table without a hero move, the program will immediately switch the stack to another table). 

Replayer slot

These options control the location and size of the replayer window.

To set the position of the replayer, open it, then click the Get current button. The program automatically sets Left, Top and Width parameters. Turn on the Active checkbox, and then when you open the replayer next time, it will be moved to the specified position.

If necessary, you can adjust the position and size of the replayer by editing the parameters Left, Top and Width manually.

New tables size & position

These options control the location and size of newly opened tables.

To set the size for new tables, open one table, set the desired size and press the top Get current button. The program will automatically fill in the Width and Height fields. Turn on the Set size for the new tables checkbox and when you open each new table, its size will change to the specified size.

To set the position for new tables, open one table, position it in the right place and press the bottom Get current button. The program will automatically fill in the Left and Top fields. Turn on the Set pos for the new tables checkbox and when you open each new table, it will be moved to the specified location on the screen.
