I thought I read in the documentation that newer versions of LyX (I'm using Lyx-1.2.1) recognized the -geometry command-line argument and the Lyx*geometry entry in ./.Xdefaults. Mine seems not to, unless I've gotten the syntax wrong. When I put
Lyx*geometry: 720x900+283-15 in .Xdefaults, Lyx opens in the center of the screen with a window that is about 720x450. If I put lyx.height and lyx.width parameters in .Xdefaults, LyX seems to follow them. How do I get the geometry parameters, including position on the screen, to work. Thanks, Ronald Florence
