[E-devel] window placement setting ?
(* I am resending this as it seems that it never made it to the list *) Hi, After a foray into foreign lands (metacity, as I wanted to try gnome2), I have installed e16 again and have been playing with its configuration. I had forgotten how great it is. Somehow I thought I remembered there was a way to specify how to place windows (in a smart way (ie in the less cluttered part of the screen)) but I cannot find this option anymore (but maybe I am confused and it was an e17 option). I have looked at the window placement configuration dialog, of course. I am using today's cvs. Thanks for any pointer about this.

Hi, I think you want the Remember dialog, Remember? :) Thanks, but I'm afraid that would not work. The typical usage I have in mind is: I open an Eterm (which I configured to be half a screen wide), which gets on the left. Then I open another one, and I'd like it to be on the right hand side of the screen, where there is nothing yet. I remember that e17 could do that, but I'm not sure about e16.

I know you've already said no about using Remember..., but why can't you start one Eterm with something like Eterm --name left, position it where you want it, and Remember Then start the other Eterm with Eterm --name right and do the same ?? Or, create a script or alias with Eterm --geometry WxH+X+Y, replacing W,H,X,Y with appropriate numbers ?? Hall --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
