I used to include a patch in the Fink package which changed system-gschemrc to take into account the default size of the OS X dock (which cuts into the screen real estate, and isn't obvious from the root window size reported by the X server). But it was hard-coded to fit a 1024x768 display (and it assumed the dock was on the bottom), so I took it out. Lately, I just hit the green "maximize" button, as someone else suggested. That does seem to be aware of the size of the dock. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
