Hi
It seems that since Pd 0.43 a Pd file does not save the window manager window position and size anymore (at least on linux), but instead the position and the size of the canvas, i.e. the white patching area.
This has some implications. Since window decorations (title bar, window borders) have different sizes/widths across different window managers, but even different sizes across certain themes of certain window managers, the patch window of a saved patch doesn't always appear at the position where it was saved. Even more, the next time the patch is saved and re-loaded, it's shifted again, etc.
I am usually running fluxbox and with my current theme, the offset is x: -3px y: -9px
With the Ubuntu Lucid default theme (Gnome), the offset is: x: -1px y: 0px
Can that be addressed somehow, or is it not possible from tcl/tk to know the properties of the window decorations?
In fluxbox, there is the side effect, that when xPos or yPos is negative, the window is drawn to the next window free area of the screen instead of the stored position.
Another new issue since 0.43 in fluxbox is, that a second instance of Pd is always opened on the workspace where the first instance is running. This wasn't the case with older versions of Pd (i.e.: it was possible to start a second instance of Pd in a new workspace.
Is anybody else experiencing similar issues and might have some ideas how to resolve this?
