[Bug 1191358] Re: mudlet window can be hidden offscreen

 

I know this is an old issue, but it's not been resolved and I just ran
into it myself. I'm fairly certain that if I plug the much higher
resolution monitor I have at work in (it's a thunderbolt display), that
I'll be able to get at it, but now I can't get at it, and I don't have
such a display at home D:

Title:
  mudlet window can be hidden offscreen

Status in Mudlet the MUD client:
  New

Bug description:
  two related issues:
  1) mudlet window defaults to the location it was previously when you reopen the program even when that location is off screen. For example: I use mudlet when i'm plugged into my second monitor, but now that i'm using my laptop without second monitor it is off the screen and I can't get it back.

  2) mudlet window doesn't respond correctly when I hit the "gather
  windows" button in the mac display preferences. Thus, I cannot refind
  the mudlet window.

  suggestions:
  1) many programs solve this issue by making sure that at least some corner of the application is always visible. Then you can drag it back into view when you change monitors.

  2) open new windows to a visible place on the screen.

  I'm running Mudlet 2.1 on Mac OS X 10.6.8
