Fwd: Re: [libreoffice-users] Fwd: Saving Window sizing

Make that:

The application always opens to the size in which it was when it was
last CLOSED.

It has nothing to do with actually saving the files. It just reopens to
same the size it was when it last closed (full screen or smaller,
whichever was in place when the application closed).

So what would be nice to have would be to save the window size with the
individual file, not the application as a whole.

Thanks again, Andy

Hi, thank you for your reply.

I am under Linux openSUSE 11.4 with KDE 4.6.00.

I did some experimenting. The following is reproducible:

1. Open Document A (DocA). Resize it, e.g., Large (but not full screen).

2. Change its content and save it.

3. Close LO completely.

4. Open DocB. It opens to the last saved size of DocA, NOT the size in
which it was saved.
=====
a. Now make DocB full screen, change something, save it, closeout LO.

b. Open another document, e.g., DocA. Now it opens full screen (the size
in which DocB was saved) not the smaller size in which DocA was saved.
=====
OK, now save them as .ods files, not .xls files. Repeat the experiment.
NO change. The new file always opens to the size of the last previously
saved file, not its own size setting.
=====
What I was hoping to be able to do is have each document save its own
sizing. Is there any way to do that?

Thanks again,

Best regards, Andy
