The _1 inheritance for pmove was left over from long ago and is
decomitted in 601. As Oleg points out it is mentioned the Release
Highlights. pmovex didn't support _1 for inherited values and it was
strange that you could pmove the form to _2 _2 but not to _1 _1. You
need to change your code to inquire the current xywh in pixels with
wd'qformx' and then provide your desired arguments to wd'pmovex...'.

Subject: [Jbeta] Problem with WD command 'pmove' in beta v
On switching from beta n to beta v pmove behaved differently where the
_1
argument form had previously worked as expected.
With beta n (and four previous betas I have run under Windows XP
Tablet
Edition)
11!:0 'pc test;pshow;pmove 100 100 _1 _1'
works as expected, moving the form down and to the right while
preserving
the default x and y values of roughly 100 by 100.
Under beta v the same code moves the top left corner of the form as
with
beta n, but shrinks the form to show only the panel text line.
There is no change to the documentation. Is this a bug that has crept
in,
or is it a problem unique to my environment?
