In gnome, an application remembers its previous position as long as it is the first application on the screen. Subsequently opened applications always position themselves in the upper left corner.
I have set aside workspace 3 for email & chat. That means I always have two applications open in that workspace; Evolution and Xchat. Evolution is sized to cover 80% of the width of the screen and about 75% of the height of the screen from the top down. Xchat, which allows me to configure its position, fills the bottom 25% and is equal in width to Evolution. For the way I like to work, the above arrangement serves me well; nice, neat, easy to read. I have tried screwing around with the session manager to change the order in which Evolution and Xchat load. That only works for a short while then something screws up -- I lose my session -- usually my fault, but that is irrelevant to my question. -- Regards Bill; Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.2 Evo.2.22.2, Emacs 22.2.1 _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
