This may have already been reported, but I didn't find it. Basically, if a patch has coordinates that are off the screen, it will open fine, it just won't be visible. While this isn't a big deal, when it happens, its confusing. I just spent sometime wondering why my patch wasn't opening, and also not giving any errors.

I don't know off-hand, but maybe it wouldn't be to hard to get the current screen size from Tcl/Tk and compare the window placement to that.

Any chance of getting access to the bug database so I can report these myself? Or maybe its time to look into bugzilla or sourceforge's bugtracking.
