Adobe Audition is really stupid in that when you change the size of the window, and then change it back to the original size, all the frame positions are lost and you have to tediously reposition them by hand.
I'd like to make it completely impossible to ever resize the window, just keep it maximized at all times. If I accidentally click "Restore" or drag the title bar, it should either ignore it, or move around the screen while staying the same size. Is there any way to do this?
One can disable the resize of a window by changing its border style to one that does not support resizing.
Here are two products that can edit the style of a window :
I found Window Detective to be much more reactive than Winspector, although working with both is very similar. Here is how I rendered notepad to be unresizable.
After launching Window Detective and notepad, click the "Pick window" button of Window Detective and bring it over the notepad window. The notepad window is highlighted, but ensure that you chose the entire notepad window rather than only a sub-window such as the edit-text control.
Click to choose the notepad window. Window Detective will then display it in its Window list. Right-click on it and choose "Edit Window Styles" :
The following window is displayed :
Uncheck the style called "WS_THICKFRAME" and click OK.
This is it - the border of notepad can no longer be resized.
Note : If Window Detective slows-down the display, close its Messages panel.
My first idea was a partial solution - saving your workspace (after you finished positioning everything), and when it gets messed up, using the Reset workspace option.
You could even assign a Keyboard Shortcut to it, and then fixing the position is just a key-press away.
UPDATE: After some more digging around, I found something that does exactly what you requested.
After launching the program, select the Adobe Audition, and then right-click the tray icon of WinSize, and use Last Window: Add/Overwrite Entry, then double click the tray icon, pick from the dropdown Adobe Audition, and mark the checkbox besides always in the Width/Height frame.
Save these settings by pressing Change on the right, and OK in the bottom.
WindowsLayoutSnapshot is a free tool that captures positions of all windows and allows to restore them. Read the project README and check it out, it works great for Windows 7.
