            Bug ID: 123505
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Small-screen default size is inconvenient
           Product: Writer
           Version: 4.0.1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: viewing

(Windows7Prof64bit, HP Elitebook 8560p)
Using OoWriter, open a new text file, then click the "part-screen" windows icon
(top left of screen).  OoW produces a window almost completely filling the
screen, so the user must always drag the edges to a sensible part-screen size.

There is no way to set this to a user preference (?)

If the user produces a convenient part-screen size (say - the top left quarter
of the screen), he can save the current file in that size (and reopen it
later).  But this does not affect the default size and position:  when he
starts a new text file, OoW will once again produce the huge "part-screen"
window.

Suggested solutions:  
- the default part-screen size and position automatically reset to the last
part-screen created by the user, or
- the default part-screen size and position can by set as an option by the
user, or
- the default part-screen occupies about a quarter of the screen, NOT in the
centre (leaving room to run other apps)

Thanks for reading this.  Tony
