Thanks for the explanation.  It makes sense that smart means don't put the
window in a stupid place.

But I have a couple of questions.
Your equation availableHeight = screenHeight - (screenHeight - panelHeight)
resolves to
availableHeight =  panelHeight using conventional algebra.  I am not sure
what this means.

Also, you have described what smart is, but what is smarty? I assume by the
usual conventions
of computer languages changing the name changes the meaning.


Did I screw up my algebra? Oops, forgot how PEMDAS works I guess.

There's an equation for determining available space, then another for actually placing the window, I think I might have merged them which doesn't really work....


Either way smarty just refers to reserving space of the y-axis by subtracting the panelsize from your display height. It's ooooold terminology.
