Sounds like this should actually be:
set x [ expr max($x % $screenwidth - $::windowframex, 0)]
set y [ expr max($y % $screenheight - $::windowframey, 0)]
That would ensure that x and y are always>= 0. Does changing that in
pdtk_canvas.tcl solve your issue?
The tricky part here is that this would then break how Pd strictly sets
the position of existing patches based on the values on the first line
of the patch file.
wouldn't that make it difficult to put the window outside the screen
deliberately ... for example to hide the window decorations off-screen?
I have needed to use this a few times (when making the window properly
fullscreen was not possible or appropriate), and it is sometimes a lot
easier than trying to work out how to tell a particular window manager
not to put decorations on a particular window.

Hi Simon, with this:
if {$geometry == "+0+0"} {
set x 0
set y 0
} else {
set x [ expr $x % $screenwidth - $::windowframex]
set y [ expr $y % $screenheight - $::windowframey]
}
You'll keep the standard behaviour of Pd for all the saved patches, only
the new ones are forced to be placed to coords 0,0.
Before this kind of change is included in Pd-extended or Pd, it'll need
to be tested a lot on all platforms. That's why I never really tackled
the issue of all the different WMs.
You are right, I only wrote to Simon that he won't loose the possibility
to place a pd's window outside the screen.
I think a workable approach would
be to isolate the bits that need to be changed for the different VMs and
stick that into its own Tcl proc (function) while keeping the current logic.
Then it'll be easy to customize this logic without having to come up
with the One True Way that will require lots and lots of testing and
tweaking. If the above is really all that needs to change, then that
can be put into its own proc.
Ok, I'll make further tests to confirm the correct behaviour in OpenBox.
Thanks
