You're right, I use the name already existing in Squeak/Pharo. We should change them. Reverse Stragger is the one used in Squeak/Pharo: random, which is not a random but a placement where it is the better (hummmm, not sure it works fine). Standard is a placement where the screen is divided in four space (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) and window are placed in each of these spaces. > > - I think it should be also documented if possible in the settings browser, > what does each option mean.

What I really think > is that we need something deterministic. Fixed. Not random. Not surprise. > Maybe not all of you agree. I would like to hear other opinions. Again, you're right. I make the cascade setting because the other are not easy to use when I use my big screen. Reverse Stragger is cool on a 15 inches, but on a larger screen it is really difficult. I leave it to Reverse Stragger to not change the habit. Now, I think Cascade is better. Other opinions ?
