I will add these to our to-do list.

Although generally you should let the web site decide how big the pop-up should be which is how it works now in PWB v3.

One of the sites that pops up re-sizes itself smaller in the new window which is ok, however we have the zoom set to 125% and it doesn't account for this, so half the content is trapped outside the window. The site does not create scroll bars. Having the ability to either custom the zoom in the new window or to force it full screen would help us eliminate the problem.

Maybe add one more setting for new windows.

Just noticed that if a new window is left open, the inactivity timer on the primary can't close the secondary window without a confirmation.

Remove confirm close of new window.

The inactivity timer should close all the windows after the initial prompt. We will check into it.

We added the following to PWB version 3.03.5.

[SecondWindow]
StartMaximized=False
WindowHeight=
WindowWidth=
WindowTop=
WindowLeft=
DefaultZoomLevel=
MaintainZoom=False

Of particular interest is the MaintainZoom. This will maintain the zoom of the parent window, and calculate popup windows to increase the size of the window based on the percent of zoom if over 100%.
