#63 fresh install windows partially off screen

From Steve Kirks.

If you're working in the ODB and make changes to a
script, be concious of the window's size and position.
On my iBook, the best I can manage is 1024x768. Had
it not been for a second monitor using an unsupported
hack, I never would have been able to move the window
so I could see the titlebar and the chicklet to zoom it
to a smaller size.

IIRC the window positions are set on the way back in from
the Frontier version control file, via cvsSync.

I'll check this out when I assemble the next preview release.

I tried cranking down my screen rez to 1024x768 and then
opened up some scripts from a fresh virgin database and
didn't have a prolem.

Steve, could you please give me a step by step. Is it all
windows? Or just some specfic windows?

For the most part the windows should be picking up their
size information on the fly as I've not assigned them any
position or size. Which seems to be the case as when I
downed my rez, the windows started opening in an apporpiate
position for the reduced rez.

Idea. Could it be because you have two monitors attached
that the window placement code is getting fouled up? Please
try with only one monitor attached and let me know what you
find.

In my testing in prep to get a developer release out the
door, I've not noticed any windows off screen and inaccessable.

I've even gone down to 640x480!
