[E-devel] E17 window sizing issues when apps ( esp OpenOffice ) start up

[Daniel K. <dk...@nu...>]

Hi all.

I'm having some issues with the size that windows get on startup. This 
problems mainly occurs with the OpenOffice suite, and can be reproduced 
by doing the following:

- start an OpenOffice app
- maximize it
- note that it fills the screen properly, and doesn't overlap the shelf
- close it
- start it again

When it starts again, it starts full-screen. I have tried with:
- the shelf 'above everything' as well as 'below everything' ... no 
difference to window sizing on restart
- the 'smart expansion' as well as 'fill available space' maximize 
policy ... also no difference

The problem only occurs if the OpenOffice app is maximized when I close 
it. If I resize it down a bit, it restarts at this size.

I have repeated these tests on a fresh install ( and also rm -rf ~/.e ).
