[v5.2 IDE] Memorize Window positions fails with 2 monitors.

Post by skywalk »

Don't know if this affects anyone else, but I have to disable the preference setting.
Upon restart of the IDE, it is several pixels higher. Started with v5 and still happens in v5.20.
I have 2 monitors stacked vertically.

IsWindowMaximized = 0
X = 67
Y = -1 ;<-- This is the culprit!

EDIT:
Workaround: Use the [WindowsKey+RightArrow] to position IDE, then stretch the left side to my desired width.
This guarantees that Y exactly = 0. If I manually move my IDE and Y ends up = -1, then restarting IDE subtracts the width of my vertical task bar from the Y position and is no longer at Y = -1.
The nice thing about standards is there are so many to choose from. ~ Andrew Tanenbaum
