--- Comment #5 from Shad Sterling <[email protected]> ---
LibreOffice 4.2.5.2 on Mac OS X 10.9.4

--- Summary:

The behavior has changed in 4.2.5, but it is still inconsistent (just
differently inconsistent), and still does not work as desired.

Instead of depending on how the file is opened, the document window size &
position now depends on weather or not the StartCenter is open when the file is
opened.

The desired behavior is (still) for the document window to open with the same
size & position as when the same document file was most recently closed.

--- Detail:

I upgraded from 4.2.4 to 4.2.5 to test this with the current version.

After closing all documents, then closing LibreOffice, LibreOffice launches
with the StartCenter as the only window.

Opening the most recently closed document from the StartCenter appears to open
the document in the same window; the StartCenter disappears and the document
window has the same size and position that the StartCenter had.

Leaving the StartCenter open and opening the file from either the Recent Files
menu or the Open Document dialog does the same thing, as does switching to and
opening the file from Finder.

Closing the StartCenter and then opening the file in any of the same three ways
appears to open the document to the same size and position that it had when
closed.  Opening the file from Finder was significantly slower, even though
LibreOffice was already open - it appeared to wait until I clicked on a menu
(to make sure it was still responding at all) before loading the file; this was
not the case when the StartCenter was left open.

If I close LibreOffice with one document still open, LibreOffice still launches
with the StartCenter as the only window, and reopening the same file has the
same behavior as when I closed the document before closing LibreOffice (right
down to waiting for me to click a window when opening the file from Finder).

If I open the same file from Finder when LibreOffice is not already open,
LibreOffice launches with that document as the only window (no StartCenter),
and the document window has the same size and position that it had when closed.
 This is the same as opening from Finder when LibreOffice is open and the
StartCenter is closed, except that it does not wait for a click before opening
the file.

I did not test multiple document behavior, such as @Rainer Bielefeld Retired's
Landscape and Poortrait scenario.  I separated tests for having closed the
document first from having closed LibO with the document open because when I
first launched 4.2.5 I opened the document from the StartCenter and then saw
that there were two windows open for the same file, which I thought might have
been related to the file being open when I last closed 4.2.4 (now that does not
seem to be the case).
