mkn Junior Member Offline Posts: 55	Window Placement? Apr 28th, 2005, 10:39am   Is there a way to specify graphics window placement? Sometimes when switching between very large canvas and screen sized canvas the graphics window can pop outside the Windows screen and be out of reach. I guess it's useful as a quick-and-dirty around the graphics window freezing bug as well. Mkn.

For example when starting 0085 and running size() larger than screen dimensions in the first sketch the graphics window gets located halfway outside top left corner. I'm running the WinXP version. This wouldn't be a problem unless Win doesn't let you move windows unless the top drag bar is accessible with mouse... :/
