Yes, that has been my experience for a few years. > <...> > > Now, once you set the size for each module (calc, writer etc), each will > have its own default size - as long as you NEVER open the start screen. > Once you open a module via the start screen that module will reset to > the start screen size. Right. That's the problem. > The interwebs are full of people complaining about this in both LO and > OpenOffice for years. It sounds like what I need to do is to remember never to close the last LO open document without closing LO. As long as I'm starting from scratch LO opens documents in the location and at the size the last document of that type was when it was closed. That's the behavior I want. > Some WM/DE allow you to set application geometry (KDE?) but since I use > Xfce I wouldn't know. That might be useful for some folks, but I'm interested in keeping the geometries of a particular group of spreadsheets, and Writer files. I suspect the reason it only recently showed up for me is that I've switched my monitors, left to right, and the screen real estate is smaller where I open the spreadsheet not. As noted above, I'll have to learn to avoid closing the last document, leaving the LO start screen open. Thanks for the clarification. -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
