So I was going to ask, any way to *change* where Bezel locks its
window to. And then I said, hey, let's look at the code...
For anyone else who's interested—I wanted Bezel to display near the
top of the screen, instead of in the middle, because I drag things
onto QS for "Open with..." a lot, and the Bezel window in the middle
of the screen is usually on top of Finder windows. The place to change
is in Plugins-Main/Bezel/QSBezelInterfaceController.m, function
rectForState, line 114. Changing "NSHeight(screenRect) / 8" to
"NSHeight(screenRect) / 3" gets me a bezel that's about 50-100px from
the bottom of the menubar, which is what I wanted.
And then I was going to say that getting Primer to center would be
more difficult, except that in QSPrimerInterfaceController.m, function
showMainWindow, there's this code:
if (defaultBool(@"QSAlwaysCenterInterface") ) {
NSRect frame = [[self window] frame];
frame = centerRectInRect(frame, [[[self window] screen] frame]);
[[self window] setFrame:frame display:YES];
}
So if you're willing to edit the code, what you can do is replace that
whole function (showMainWindow) with this:
- (void)showMainWindow:(id)sender {
NSRect frame = [[self window] frame];
NSRect screen = [[[self window] screen] frame];
frame = NSOffsetRect(centerRectInRect(frame, screen), 0,
NSHeight(screen) / ***8 or 3 for roughly-centered or top-of-screen,
respectively***);
[[self window] setFrame:frame display:YES];
[super showMainWindow:(id)sender];
}
Unfortunately this still allows the interface window to be moved
(unlike Bezel), but the next time you invoke it it will be back where
it was.
