Studio CE IDE saving Window positions

For some reason my installation of Sun ONE Studio (on Windows 2000) has stopped saving window positions on exiting.
Every time I start the IDE it is completely empty (no windows open). Before it would save the window positions, open files, etc, so that every time I started it things would be the same as when I exited the application. It's understandably driving me nuts.
Does anyone know how to restore this functionality or if I'm failing to check certain options or preferences....
Thanks,
-T

I managed to 'reset' things by creating and specifying a new user-dir as per:

A few settings had to be migrated over, but all is well again....for now.

Is it just me, or is it a bug? I use flash at a dual monitor
system an place the stage on the first and the actionscript window
on the second screen. After restarting flash, both (the stage and
the AS-window) are at the first screen.

No JavaScript Intellisense in Visual Studio Express 12 For Windows Phone

I'm developing mobile app for windows phone using Windows phone 8 SDK (Visual Studio Express 12 For Windows Phone). I want to use code auto-Complete facilities when coding in Javascript. For that I need to use Intellisense for JS.
According to my knowledge, To configure Intellisense according to my knowledge,It have navigate to the [Tools] > [Options] > Text Editor > JavaScript > IntelliSense >
But in my [Tools] > [Options] > Text Editor > list there is No item called JavaScript.
Please help me for solve this.

Hi AmilaEranga,
I try to test it in my side, I could get the JavaScript Text Editor in my side.
So I doubt that it would be your VS IDE issue. If possible, please download it from the official site here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30664
And then repair your VS, test it again.
Or you could run the following command lines with the Developer Command Prompt of VS2012:
devenv /setup
devenv.exe /InstallVSTemplates

External displays - browser window position when disconnected display

I'm using a laptop, connecting one or two external displays, - one using the HDMI port, second using an USB "dock station" (Toshiba standalone). Second screen normally to the right, third screen (usb) above the laptop screen.
Often when I have disconnected the USB external display, my Firefox browser window are still "on the third display" - position as if this display was still active.
Even if I quit Firefox and restarts ( or even restarts windows ) the same position window is retained. The only way to fix it (when the USB connected display is not available), is to change the window position of the second (HDMI) display to cover the area of the USB one, then move Firefox window to my main laptop display, and then reposition the second screen back to the normal.
Normally, I expect applications to automatically reposition the windows to the available display(s) under the conditions that an extra display is removed. However, this seems not to happen with Firefox. It's inconvinient, but possible to fix with the second screen available, but I'm lost when I am not able to connect an external display ...
Is there any solution to this? Is it possible to change (reset) window positions directly in RegEdit ??

Dear varkgirl:
Thank you very much for your help and valuable suggestion.
I've tried your suggestion but ran into some problems. The links I am trying to open in another window are actually PDF files that the viewer can download from my website.
Since I was having problems I decided to try something else. After publishing the website to my desktop I then opened the pages where the links are in Dreamweaver. The layout view is great and displayed the image just the way it appears on the browser's window. I first selected the "link button" to the file and then in the inspector windows (bottom of the page) I chose under target the "_blank" option. This tells the software that the linked page or file is to be opened in a new blank browser window. I then saved the page (re-saved it over the existing file) to incorporate the changes. After this I proceeded to navigate through the website and everything works great.
Thank you for your help and suggestions. I just thought I would post this here in case it may be of help to you as well as others.
Best regards,
Joseph Chamberlain

Java Studio Creator IDE Download Error

So I just watched a demo on the Java Studio Creator IDE and thought I'd go ahead and download it. So I followed the link from within the demo. I then had to create an account. That went just fine. After I got logged in, I went to the following url:
http://developers.sun.com/members/promo/freetools/index.html
I clicked on the following hyperlinked text:
Download the Java Studio Creator IDE.
Which opened up a new window witht the following url:
http://javashoplm.sun.com/ECom/docs/Welcome.jsp?StoreId=8&PartDetailId=JSCI9-4Q2FT99M&TransactionId=try
However, that page encountered an error and directed me to:
https://jsecom15k.sun.com/ECom/docs/FatalException.jsp;jsessionid=4786D8507DCAD6EF89AC9207D1A224E0
Which simply had "Fatal Exception" on the page.
Leave it to Sun to gloat about a new product and then not even be able to download it. Pretty lame if you ask me. Sun can't even get something as simple as a file download from the web to work, how well do you expect their development environment or resulting application to work.

Hi,
sorry that you had trouble with the download:-( I just tried your steps and they seem to work for me;-) I guess, it was a temporary problem in the `global' download center.
But I would suggest if you want to try something new, go to
http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/ea/jsc2/index.html
That's an EarlyAccess version of our upcoming release. The link you followed will bring you to the release product.
Thanks,

How can I override the startup window position?

Can I override a compiled labview 7 app with ini settings, command line options, via a registry edit, or other option?
Thanks,
Mike

Hello Mike
Besides saving the vi in a position, you also have a property node to determine window position at startup app.
Values can be fix, calculated from monitor specs, etc.
See attached doc.
Hope it helps

How can I make Mail window positions sticky?

One of the few good things about Windows is application windows always open in the same place every time. Why can't we have this with Apple Mail...it occurs with many other inherent Apple applications.
When I open a new message window in Apple Mail I don't want it to be in a different position every time I open it...I want it in the same spot each time (and want that position to be decided by me...I'm the one using the application). Forcing a window to open in the same position is basic programming, so this must be something intentionally done. Is there any way to fix it?

One of the few good things about Windows is

every time.
Pull the other one. (Or did I miss the smilies? ...
But back on track:
When I open a new message window in Apple Mail I
don't want it to be in a different position every
time I open it...I want it in the same spot each time
Hi
Mail is a document-based application (that is developer speak - never mind) that automatically stores the size and position of windows (at least it should).
BUT it differentiates between the type of windows you are using - example:
- Mine is configured to show no preview pane (just the sidebar with accounts and folders and the message list on the right)
- When I compose a message it opens in the exact same location where I had the last message composed and send (that is it stores size and position of the composition window)
- When I read a message it opens in the exact same location where I read the last message.
The two window positions can be different...
If this does not work for you then I suggest a look at the pref file for Apple Mail.
It lives in /User/[short user name]/Library/Preferences/ by the name com.apple.mail.plist.
You should only modify this file when Mail is NOT RUNNING. If I open several mail message windows and toss them around size and position get stored immediately in that file.
Unfortunately there is no way to store size and position in that file permanently - you could lock the file but this is not a good idea for Mail will complain about missing rights and stop working.
Cheers,
Walter

Save window positions

Hi all
There's probably a really simple answer, but I can't seem to work out how to get my Applescript Studio app to save the position of the windows on quit. (Size doesn't matter, because I've disabled resizing of windows, but I guess it would be useful to know for future reference.)

You can get the bounds or position of the window and save it using the user defaults system, for example:
tell user defaults
set contents of default entry "MyWindowBounds" to (get bounds of window 1)
end tell

Safari window positioning

Anyone have any ideas what might be causing safari window to be moved from original position when opening safari. It also does it sometimes after waking it up from sleep mode and opening safari. I trashed the prefrences and seem to be ok for a couiple of days but here this morning its doin it again. Any help would be apreciated. This is for the FP iMac

Sometimes window position problems relate to a Safari preference file problem.
Move to the desktop the com.apple.safari plist file found in your User Account (home)/Library/Preferences folder. Restart Safari. You'll need to reset your custom preferences, plus any custom settings in the Edit (spelling) or View (status bar, bookmarks bar, custom icons etc.) menus.
See if that improves the window remembering process.
Tabs and Windows:
Safari has its limitations when it comes to working with Tabs.
I have found the best way to work with tabs is using the 3rd party plug-in SAFT.
One of its many useful features is "always open browser window in tab". So your Video's would open in a new tab, rather than new window. Another useful feature is "warn before closing windows with tabs" - eliminates the inadvertent window close. Instead, a warning panel appears. And one of the most useful is remembering the tabs that were opened before you quit the program. Next time you open Safari, a panel appears asking if you want to reload the last sessions' tabs. Option includes deselecting one or more of them prior to the window opening.

Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows - InitializeComponent() does not contain a definition issue

Hi,
I have recently downloaded Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows (Windows Store App version), with Update 1.
I create a blank app. I right-click on InitializeComponent() in the MainPage.xaml.cs and select Go To Definition. It brings me to the .g.i.cs file where this method resides.
I go into the designer for MainPage.xaml and create a grid of 2 rows and 2 columns (all at 1*). I add one button, doesn't matter where. I double click on that button to add a click method to MainPage.xaml.cs. Without entering anything into the button click
method, I scroll up and InitializeComponent() has an error and tells me there is not definition, even though I was looking at the definition a minute ago. I found I could unload the project and reload it and InitializeComponent() would have the definition
in the .g.i.cs file but as soon as I add another button click or anything else I run into the same error. It seems as if the .g.i.cs file is not automatically regenerating, or it is being deleted all together when the button click method is added to the xaml.cs
file.
Everything I have done up to this point is very vanilla. I installed VS '13 Express for Windows, didn't change any VS setting, created a project and ran into this issue. I installed Update 1 thinking there might be a fix from the update--no luck. The xaml
file Build Action is Page and the Xaml.cs file is Compile.
I have tried deleting the MainPage.xaml file, after the creation of a project, and adding a new MainPage file with the added templates VS wants to include, and I still run into the same issue.
I have searched for answers the past few days but haven't found anything that addresses my issue (most of what I found addresses VS '10 but their InitializeComponent() issues aren't the same as mine). Any help the MSDN community can provide would be
a great help. If worst comes to worst, I will re-install VS and see if that corrects it--this would be a last-ditch effort though.
Thank you for any help you may be able to provide

Intellisense has a bug in VS2013 where it doesn't recognize InitializeComponent when you start working on the XAML. My feeling is that if you try to compile this app, it will run fine (as long as there are no actual errors).

If my reply answers your question, please mark this post as answered.
NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined
objects and unknown namespaces.

Window Position & Prefs "Gone"

Every time I start up or restart, any window position, size, view etc info is gone, and I get a view very different than what I had set. I have tried to delete the Finder plist, but it did not help. I did notice something extremely weird as well.
I noticed that the Finder plist is actually deleting itself about every 30 - 60 seconds when I open the ~user Library prefs, and cannot find anything that might be causing this. Repairing permissions, running utilities such as DiskWarrior etc have not helped. This condition actually exists identically on two Macs I am using. The only thing in common is that I ran an updater for Missing Sync for BlackBerry from Mark/Space Software, and took note of the condition being created on the second Mac immediately after doing this update.
I don't really want to do a full reinstall of the System, as I suspect I will still end up with this "condition" after reinstalling my working applications.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A bit of troubleshooting .....
On a full restart, any windows left open will retain their position, view, etc - but closed windows "forget" when reopened.
During the safe boots, files were sent to the Trash, which are as follows:

filetoken.db
FondResourceCache (only in the first folder above)

My startup items under my account are
iTunesHelper
Microsoft AU Daemon
iKey
MicrosoftMouseHelper
MicrosoftKeyboardHelper

All of these items were already in place - for a long time - before this problem started.
I cannot find /private in order to locate /private/var/run/StartupItems
Nothing unusual (at least that I can see) in either of the other two locations.

Hello!
I googled "SSServiceTagSupport.java:257" and found out that it is filed as IZ 154094 against Netbeans:
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=154094
Actually it was reported many times:
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=151921
It suggests a few workarounds.
Workaround 1:
"Simple workaround is to disable registration using command line option -J-Dnb.registration.enabled=false"
Workaround 2:
"The file ~/.netbeans-registration/6.5/registration.xml is empty, so I have this file erased and restarted the IDE.
After this step, the file was not regenerated, but the IDe starts now without this problem."
Please, try one of them.
Thanks,

Remembering windows positions when switching from/to dual screen display

Hello,
Most of the time, a second LCD screen is plugged in my Macbook and configured as the main display. When I arrange the windows, I keep iTunes or my mail application maximized on the macbook screen and use the bigger external screen for all other windows.
If I unplug the external display, all the windows are of course moved to the laptop display. When I plug again the external screen, all the windows are moved to the external display. But I would like the iTunes and mail application to remain on the laptop screen.
Is there any utility to remember the windows positions and arrange them automatically when I switch from/to single/dual-screen display?
Regards,
Raph

Would DisplayWatcher do what you want? I came across this a couple of weeks ago but haven't had the chance to try it out yet.

How to re-center window positions

Hi folks,
I switched from 19" to a 27" screen. How can I tell LR to re-center it's window positions?
The windos (like the Export window) are still on the old place (centered for 19").
BRGDS!

Just drag the top menu bar for either Lightroom or the Menu window. Or the bottom corner.
I'm not sure what you are after though or where you are startibng from.........
