Description

I dont know about other users etc, but I use a Nivida setup (dual monitor) and use their util programs to add the Nivida control buttons to the program windows next to the control buttons in the upper right corner. Right now the default window widths are too narrow and everything gets jumbled up and smashed together on the title bar. Can we either make the default window widths wider or have the program remember its location and size on the desktop?

I like the idea of having it remember its location and size settings on the desktop. I agree, and will add that ability.

I was thinking this a few days ago also. It would be good for it to remember where it lives on the screen, and its shape and size. I vote yes for this update.

Testers report that the resizer component is still in use in the config and debug boxes. YUP, they are. That was dumb as hell of me.

I will remove these dependancies now.

This ticket has been reopened. The resize/remember and restore functions are buggy as hell and need to be reworked.
