I have some C++/WinAPI application.   I want it to "replace" Windows 7 desktop (so it will be displayed always on bottom of all applications, just before desktop. Moreover, when user will click somewhere on my application, I want to receive it (in a normal way) but my application must stay on bottom.  I have found related post for C#, but I didn't find it as a solution to my problem:    Additional question: can I make so for other than mine (I have .exe only) application? By it I mean that my application will set other application on bottom like I described.
Does anybody know how to make a 'always-on-bottom'-windows, or a window pinned to the desktop? It should receive focus and mouseclicks, but should stay at the bottom of the Z-order. It would also be great if it could stay on the desktop even when user do a minimize all or show desktop operation.  Both delphi and c# solutions (or partial solutions/hints) would be great.
When quoting a quotation, how do you handle the double quotes? Assume there is original source text:     This restaurant is amazing with "delicious lasagna" and great service.   Make sure you go 6-7pm for the quietest times.   I want to quote "delicious lasagna" but not sure how to handle the outer double quotes.  If I was quoting more than just that quotation (e.g. is amazing with "delicious lasagna" and great service) I'd just do:     "...is amazing with 'delicious lasagna' and great service."   However, when quoting just that quotation, it looks like:     "'delicious lasagna'"   Is this the correct way or is there something better? Prove inequality using Schwarz's Lemma I'm having trouble proving the following:  Let $f$ be analytic on $D(0,R)$ and suppose there is a real constant A for which $\operatorname{Re}f(z) &lt; A$ for all $z \in D(0,R)$. If $f(0) = 0$, show that $|f(z)| \leq \frac{2A|z|}{R-|z|}$.   I was told to first start by showing that $|\frac{f(z)}{2A-f(z)}| \leq 1$ and also use the following result, which I was able to prove:  Let $f$ be analytic on $D(0,R)$ and let $f(0)=0$. If $|f(z)| \leq M$ for all $z \in D(0,R)$, then $|f(z)| \leq M|z|/R$ for all $z\in D(0,R)$.  Thanks in advance! Does the Planck scale imply that spacetime is discrete? So this is something I just found out about that I find odd:   Opportunity attacks—trigger off of movement that uses the creatures movement (action, move action, bonus action, reaction.)  Sentinel—Whenever a creature within 5 ft of you makes an attack at a creature other than you.   Booming blade—If the target willingly moves.   Mental Prison spell—if it moves, attacks through it, or reaches any part of body out of it.   So the “willingly” is different than other rulings for how effects related to movement works. However what exactly fits willing?   Cause fear—nope magic is having them move. Dissonant whispers—same thing. They have to immediately move.   So the creature has to want to move completely of its own accord.   Crown of Madness—Humanoid creature you choose must make a wisdom saving throw. On a fail it is charmed by you. (Next is flavor text so skipping.) While charmed in this way the target must make an attack on a creature other than itself that you mentally choose on each of its turns before moving.  It can act normally if you choose no creature or if none are within reach.   Crown of madness isn't making them move but doesnt specifically say willing.  And if the ruling for willing is movement not caused by magic what about magic causing situations where you take damage if you don't move. Would a creature shimmering with evocation energy be spared because he moved out of the magical blender that is cloud of daggers? If no, then what is the go-to rule for willing movement that I should be using?  In short, what movement counts as willing, and where can it be found? Is moving out of obvious danger caused by magic, willing? Is moving away from an ally so you don't hit them, willing?   If there isn't any actual ruling on willing, that's fine; I'll go back to running it with my interpretation, so that it has same wording as AOO. If there is an actual 5e term or explanation for willing (that isn't Sage Advice), please let me know. I just don't see why it was necessary to put a term in the spell that isn't used anywhere else. I understand it could have been overlooked since it was in a splatbook or has just been ignored since most people probably assume that there is "Forced " and "Willing" movement, with the willing being defined as: any movement from an action, move action, bonus action, or reaction. In same way AOO work. I'm drawing a scene where the camera freely moves about the universe.  The camera class keeps track of the view (or look at) point, the position of the camera, and the up vector.  These vectors/points are then passed into gluLookAt.    Pan and zoom are nearly trivial to implement.  However, I'm finding rotation about the look at point to be much more of an issue.  I want to write a function Camera.rotate that takes 2 angles, one that rotates up/down and one that rotates left/right along an imaginary sphere that is centered about the look at point.  Is there an easy way to do this?  I've (briefly) read about quaternions, but I wanted to see if there was an easier solution given the relatively simple construction of my scene. Will self-citation be viewed as self-promotion in academia? As we know, citation counts are important to judge one's research activity. Is it good to cite one's previous works? Will it be viewed as an act of advertisement or self-promotion? How to get rid of update notifications for a given app in Google Play Store? General question I have an app X installed on my device in version Y. I don't want to update it to any newer version (Y+z) for some reason. Still, the Google Play Store app always lists updates for X, which keeps me from a simple &quot;update all&quot;. My question, put to a single sentence:  How to hide updates for X permanently from the &quot;available updates&quot; list?   Specific examples First, I know there are alternatives as e.g. the , which can handle this quite well (skip this update, skip all future updates). I prefer a &quot;generic solution&quot;, which does not depend on a 3rd party's market app. Second, I know that  includes a &quot;Market doctor&quot;, which can be used to disconnect an app from Google Play.1 However, in my specific case that only worked for a few hours: I disconnected GTalk, as I don't want it replaced by Hangouts. The update notification disappeared for a few hours, then it was back. No idea what restored the &quot;link&quot;. Third, just to make sure: I'm not talking about the &quot;auto update&quot; feature as discussed e.g. in . I was rather hoping for something close to , but without the need to &quot;freeze&quot; the app in question (which I still want to use, but in the version installed, not in a &quot;future version&quot; available). Fourth: No, uninstalling the app in question is no option here, though it would perfectly hide any future updates from being displayed :) Nor is &quot;freezing&quot;, as the app is used regularly. Fifth: There is a related question for my GTalk example:  However, I want the opposite: No update.  It might very well be that &quot;Google Apps&quot; (and other pre-installed apps) are handled in some specific way, and restore their &quot;market links&quot; themselves somehow. For this case, my question includes: How to prevent that from happening?  Update There's a  discussing the very same issue. Until recently, a work-around for &quot;user installed apps&quot; was to uninstall them and then sideload the .apk – but even that stopped working. Well, re-signing the .apk with a different key might work for user-apps. But both would fail for pre-installed apps (can't sideload them to override; different signature would refuse that install completely). Moreover, there's an  on this by some &quot;joel.bou..&quot;. Not hard to guess, though blanked out: that would be Joël Bourquard. If it's really him, then that's really an issue (for those who don't know: Joël is the dev behind Titanium Backup). Let me quote from the issue:  For the record: in the Android Market days it was possible to &quot;Attach&quot; or &quot;Detach&quot; apps (on rooted devices) with a system tool such as Titanium Backup. But nowadays (with the Google Play Store app) this has become nearly impossible to do, because the complete app list seems to sync from Google's servers and the user has no control over that.  Which explains why detaching with apps like Titanium Backup is no longer permanent. And I'm afraid I've asked the impossible. But I thought the same in the past with other questions, and surprisingly got solutions here. So I do not yet give up hope on this one!  1: what that does is explained by eldarerathis  (thanks to  for digging that up!) I want to use Windows 7 or 8 but I don't know to install a software like VirtualBox which we have to do with the use of terminal. I don't want to use Windows as a main OS so I want to use it in VirtualBox. Can you tell me how to install downloaded files in Ubuntu. I once installed java runtime but don't know the meaning of the lines which I have written in terminal, I just did as the blog posted by a man says. How much set theory and logic should typical algebraists/analysts/geometers know? (soft-question) I know enough amount of set theory and logic to study grad-level math. However, I don't know more advanced set theory and logic, such as the ones on Kunen's or Shoenfield's texts. Although it's good to learn such advanced topics, I may not have enough time to do so, since I will probably put my emphasis on algebra, analysis or geometry as well as mathematical physics.   Although how much set theory and logic I should learn is totally up to what sort of analysis, algebra or geometry I will study, I want to know how much of them typical competitive algebraists/analysts/geometers know. If you are one of them, how much do you know? Also schemas can communicate over database links to schemas in other remote databases.    Could one replace the preposition over with through? Will it change the meaning, and if so, when should we use over instead of through? Windows 8 skype is terrible.  They've removed many buttons, most of the preferences, and have in general made it impossibly oversimplified and difficult to use.  Old Skype was fine when I had windows 7.  Is there any way to get it back on Windows 8?

Draft watermark image just in a \section Is it possible to have a draft watermark only in a \section?

I'm using MiKTeX 2.9 and TexMaker. When I try \usepackage{mathtools} in TexMaker it will try to install the package for me but will fail. I took the advice given in this thread:   As suggested I tried installing the mh package using the MiKTeX Package Manager, unfortunately I get the "unknown archive size" error, which I have read means that the package no longer exists. Another thread (lost the link) said you can use the MiKTeX Package Manager to directly install mathtools, however I do not see mathtools listed anywhere in the MiKTeX Package Manager...   So I ask, is the package under a different name? Are there any other ways to install this package? I have installed an Ubuntu server on a VMWare workstation with a space of 20GB storage as seen below;    After the installation I've attached another 40GB worth storage to the existing Ubuntu server installation (seen below);    Now I want to add this 40GB to my / (root) directory or to /var/ directory but my df -h result shows;  root@Userver:~# df -h Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1        18G  900M   16G   6% / udev            990M  4.0K  990M   1% /dev tmpfs           400M  308K  399M   1% /run none            5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock none            999M     0  999M   0% /run/shm none            100M     0  100M   0% /run/user root@Userver:~#   What should I do now?

For example, consider the sentence:     It's [much more easy]/[much easier] to do action X than action Y.   I say that much easier is correct and that much more easy is grammatically incorrect, while she says that both are okay. I understand that both are acceptable colloquially, but which is grammatically correct here? If you could explain why, that would be even better! Compilation problem with siunitx (returning error regarding ifnum) I'm trying to get siunitx working. For some reason I keep getting this error:  !

How to make a Snap application (ksnip) appear in "open with other application" context menu? For editing screengrabs, I prefer to use , since  was no longer installable without hassles on Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 However ksnip is available as a Snap App on my 20.04 ○ → snap list | grep ksnip ksnip                    1.8.0                       265    latest/stable    dporobic                 Unfortunately I have to start ksnip from the command line, then use the File-Open Dialog to pick a screengrab/PNG, then edit it in ksnip. This is should be easier. What I want is to use Nautilus File manager, then select the &quot;Open with other Application&quot; context menu item to select ksnip, and the have ksnip open the file I picked with nautilus. Nautilus Context Menu, selecting a PNG:  &quot;Select Application&quot; Dialog:  How can I achieve this? There is a &quot;View all Applications&quot; Button, but after clicking, ksnip does NOT appear in this list of apps. &quot;Find new applications&quot; does not work either. Maybe this is a duplicate, but I think we did not have the combination yet (Hack the dialog and Snap App)  (Note to self: maybe Shutter is usable again. Development had stalled for a while, or it needed a lot of deprecated versions of gnome libs as dependencies) .
