BZ 1540: Mac window position

OldeTowneTeam · 06-22-2008, 01:42 PM

Minor issue here, but the Mac version does not recall its previous window position when started -- each time you fire up OOTP9, the window comes up in the top center of the screen. This is non-standard behavior for Mac applications.

This, however, is a big step forward from OOTP2007, when the application window would jump back to this "home" position every time you hit the mouse button elsewhere in the Finder!

Which OS are you using?

Can other Mac users with different OSes confirm this?

I'm on 10.5.3 and each time I start OOTP9 it's window appears centred horizontally and a little above vertical centre.

I really don't see that this is any kind of problem and wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't read this post.

Again, like I said, this isn't a big deal, but I would expect the application to remember where I'd prefer its window to open, rather than my having to reposition it every single time. This is standard behavior for Mac applications.
