Hello Jan,

Thank you for the report, we are aware of this problem and it is already  logged in our database for further investigation.

Our common practice as far as new browsers / browser versions are concerned, is to release an update about a week after the official browser release. The reason for this is that beta browser versions have bugs as well as changes that do not make it in the final version and we have had plenty of problems in the past addressing beta issues that fail to occur in the actual official release

 This is stated on our site below:

I will bookmark this thread and as soon as I have some useful information on the progress of this issue, I will follow you up here.

Hello Jan,

I am glad to inform you that we tested with the latest source code of RadWindow and the latest release candidate of IE9 and the size problem is gone there.

This being said, what I suggest is to wait until the upcoming Q1 release is available (this is scheduled till the end of next week), download the latest IE9 release candidate and test again.

What caused this problem, exactly? I have noticed the windows are different using window.open in IE9. I assume that this might have had something to do with the problem users were experiencing with the RadWindow. Can someone shed some light on this? It seems like internet explorer is ignoring the specified width altogether.

Thanks!

Hello James,

 The problem was present when shadows are enabled and it was due to incorrect size calculated (the offset height was not correctly returned in the calculations). However, I do not think that this could be the problem in your case because there is a big difference between a standard browser window and RadWindow (e.g the RadWindow is actually either a DIV or IFRAME and it resides in the same page) and also the issue was not present when shadows were not enabled.

Best wishes,
