elias,Unfortunately setting / storing the window size and location can be done in RCP but _not_ with Riena because of the way we start-up the application. I added more comments to the bug. From my POV this would be something worth addressing in the future. Elias. thanks for your investigations. your proposed 1st step to setup x - y - coordinates using parameters would help. but in the future this must be more flexible: a business user - in most cases - works from the same desktop with same monitor size. then he/she expects after restart opening the app at the same position and same size as he(she leaves it. I store positions / sizes in the server-side database per user, then in the start-up-process I get position and size from server, check if it fits into current monitor size: if yes open as last time if not open with defaults I noticed another thing while starting a riena app with custom LnF: there's a noticeable delay refreshing the subapplication switcher tabs: at first all are same size, then the active becomes larger. this doesnt look good I would normaly - if the first rendering of the whole window needs some time - opening the window outside the visible area - then after rendering is done - position the window at normal position. in the meantime the splash with progressbar is visible and all gives a better feeling I'll open a bug for this ekke On Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 12:24 AM, ekke <ekke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Elias Volanakis schrieb: Ekke, I believe both a + b can be done with standard Eclipse APIs.

I think, there are two important things: a) if user quits the app: store the size and position and an api would be great to make it possible to store it user-specific at server-site b) at start open saved size and position if available - if not start with default width, height and position (top left, centered...) perhaps this should be part of login dialog - process ? then user-preferences from server can get read, tested if they fit into current monitor sizes and opened there - if not fit opened with defaults I'll open a bugzilla for this Is there maybe a way for a regular RCP application that also works for Riena ??? a workaround like the one elias found out for the Help action would be great I have not spend so much time yesterday - ...am working on the demo at galileo democamp in munich today (and also again spent some time on 35 bugzillas in the area of target platforms ;-) ekke christian Am 03.06.2009 um 01:37 schrieb ekke: hi rienaers, I have found that I can enter the width and height as arguments, and this works well. But I also want to open the Riena SWT Application in the center of the main screen - is it possible to configure this ? thx ekke -- ekke (ekkehard gentz) independent software-architect senior erp-consultant eclipse | osgi | equinox | mdsd | oaw | emf | uml max-josefs-platz 30, D-83022 rosenheim, germany mailto:ekke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx homepages (de): http://ekkehard.org || http://gentz-software.de blog (en): http://ekkes-corner.org blog (de): http://ekkes-ecke.org skype: ekkes-corner Steuer-Nr: 156/220/30931 FA Rosenheim, UST-ID: DE189929490 _______________________________________________ riena-dev mailing list riena-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/riena-dev -- ekke (ekkehard gentz) independent software-architect senior erp-consultant eclipse | osgi | equinox | mdsd | oaw | emf | uml max-josefs-platz 30, D-83022 rosenheim, germany mailto:ekke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx homepages (de): http://ekkehard.org || http://gentz-software.de blog (en): http://ekkes-corner.org blog (de): http://ekkes-ecke.org skype: ekkes-corner Steuer-Nr: 156/220/30931 FA Rosenheim, UST-ID: DE189929490 _______________________________________________ riena-dev mailing list riena-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/riena-dev --
