smart Window placement

[bbjimmy]

This is an example of a way to save Window settings yet always display the whole window when the program opens.


sub OpenWindow()
local x
local y
x=150 : y=150
if (open(1,"/boot/home/config/settings/myprogram.settings"))then
line input #1 x$
line input #1 y$
close #1
x=val(x$)
y=val(y$)
if x<0 x=150
if y<0 y=150
if (x> peek("desktopwidth")-500) x=150
if y> (peek("desktopheight")-500) y=150
end if

window open x,y to x+500,y+500, "MainWindow", "myprogram"

// set up the Window

end sub

sub CloseWindow()

x= window get "MainWindow", "Position-X"
y= window get "MainWindow", "Position-y"
open #1,"/boot/home/config/settings/myprogram.settings","w"
print #1 str$(x)
print #1 str$(y)
close #1
window close "MainWindow"
return
end sub
