How to remember window sizes?

How do I get window sizes to be maintained at the size that I had them when last opened? I.E. I open a window, arrange icons as I want them and set the window size as I want it. Next time I open that folder, everything is remembered except for the window size. Thanks...

It won't if it's a Finder window. Mine doesn't either. Repairing probably won't help. If you open a new Finder window with a Command-N shortcut, then it will remember the size. For some reason it won't work from the dock. Not sure why.

Some programs won't remember window size and position

I have a couple programs, notably ComicNerd, that won't ever seems to remember window size or position from quit to restart. I can't seems to find any evidence other people are having the same problem with the program, so I assume it's something wrong with my computer. Anyone have any idea how I can fix this? Is there some permissions problem or something?

It's likely a corrupted Preference file
Look in your Users/Library/Preferences folder for .plist file with ComicNerd in it and just move it to your desktop and restart the program/computer.
The preference file should rebuild itself, so look for it and if it's in the Preference folder then delete the one on the desktop.
You also might want to run ALL the cleaning and maintenance aspects of the free OnyX and reboot.

the Verify > preference (show only corrupted) should also help locate other corrupted .plist (Preference) files for similar action like you did above.

How to change window size dynamicalyy in scripts

HI,
how to change window size dynamicalyy in sap scripts.pls suggest me.

You acnnot do that but what you can do is to have two layouts, having two windows with different sizes and calling one of them conditionally.
using start_form end_form functions:
open_form.
if cond 1.
call start_form. "pass form 1
call end_form.
endif.
if cond 2.
call start_form. "pass form 2
call end_form.
endif.
close_form.

you can specify your preferences in systemsettings->window behaviour->window rules. Just add a new entry for the application you want to start in a specific size, position, etc.
There are tons of options there, have fun.
edit.: forgot to say that you can also specify a rule for more than one application.
Thanks. I always thought this was enabled by default and maybe something was off. Guess not.

Remembering Window Sizes/Positions in Windows 7

Hi
I've read this thread regarding windows folder position/size (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itproui/thread/5b524d53-df97-405d-835f-f081d106a19b)
however it doesn't address my issue.
For me, anytime I open a software, position it, play around in it and then close it, and reopen it again, it never goes back to the size/position I set it to. Same with Outlook. When I open a new email window, set its size and position, the next new email
window is never where it needs to be.
Is there a way for windows/outlook to remember where my software windows should be based on a position/size I give it?

Hi,
I would like to share the following link with you.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/235994
You can know that how windows remembers the Window size.
Regarding your outlook issue, you may close outlook then delete the frame key from HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Message\ and restart outlook. This will reset the window to the default size.

How to configure window sizes?

I have a new Macbook Pro and when I open new windows, especially documents or downloads, the windows are less than half screen. Can I somehow set this up, so that any window I open will always be Full screen, or do I have to manually increase the window size to full screen myself?
Thank You!

How about clicking the green button in the upper left. It should remember that default setting.
I also use RightZoom.app for better functionality across the board.

Firefox not remembering window size with two monitors

I have a laptop with a monitor attached - both the laptop monitor and external monitor are used as separate desktops. I have Firefox set to open on the external monitor, but it does not remember the last window size: it always opens to the size of the laptop monitor. Firefox is the only program that exhibits this behavior. I have reset, uninstalled and re-installed, yet the same behavior continues. Before re-installing, I've made sure to delete any left over Mozilla/Firefox folders.

As far as I can tell this problem was never fixed and it goes back years:
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=251024 Bug 251024 - On startup the main window is incorrectly sized according to the workspace of the primary monitor]
Even more bugs about it here:

How to change window size?

My top level ancestor is a JFrame and I want to change my application window size. I found that there is a ComponentEvent.COMPONENT_RESIZED event but how I can fire this event?
thanks

JFrame f = (JFrame)this.getTopLevelAncestor();
f.setSize(newX, newY);Of course, if the resize is according to a child component resizing..
f.pack();..should do the trick.

Remember Window Size

Often I will look for a file using Spotlight. The Finder window that pops up with results is always too small and I have to expand it to see all of the columns in that window. Is there a way to fix this so I don't have to manually resize the window?

If you're looking in Safari for a Finder preference, you're not going to find it. Safari isn't part of Finder. Microsoft was the only company I know of that tried to integrate a web browser into every other function in the OS.
com.apple.finder.plist was modified when I changed the search window size, so perhaps deleting that will allow it to write the preferences.
I set the size via preference and that was it: SearchViewSettings>WindowState>WindowBounds.

Firefox won't remember window size within the window

The size within the window will not remember it's size.
By either using the - / + or "Ctrl" & scroll wheel to change the size within the window...Firefox won't remember and when you go to the next window or link or tab or new page or whatever it goes back to the size it wants to be at (like a default size).
How do we get it to stay the same size for every page?

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
*NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
*You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"

How to make window size same as linked file?

Hi
I understand how to make the link and have it open in a new
window upon click, but how do I make this map open in a window that
is exactly the same dimensions as the map png file itself, as
opposed to opening in the same size of the browser window.

and click on the MALAYSIAN driving directions.
Thanks

That works fine and is quite acceptible, but it won't work
for the initial
default page - which is what the question is about.

How to set window size persistently

firefox 9.0.1 on ubuntu 11.10 64 bit using Unity desktop always reverts to fullscreen on opening a new session. I require it to open with the size I left it at when closing the previous session. How can I do this?

Apple no longer supports Safari for Windows > Apple apparently kills Windows PC support
Use either IE or Chrome.
