2465.0. "CREATE/TERM/WINDOW=(X=1000,Y=800)" by DUVEL::VERCAMMEN (La VAX qui rit...) Mon Mar 19 1990 07:01


	Is it possible to use CREATE/TERM/WINDOW=(X_POSTION=value1,
	Y_POSITION=value2) whereby value1 and value2 are choosen so
	that the window will not be fully mapped on the screen

	Example: CREATE/TERM/WINDOW=(X_POSITION=1000,Y_POSITION=800)...

	It seems to position the window in such a way that it is always
	fully mapped...???? (In the right hand corner...)

	Is this right, and if yes can we avoid this...



	Thanks,


	Jan

Re: .0

Yes, DECterm always tries to position the window so that it is completely
visible, and no, you can't avoid this (as far as I know).  I made this
change in DECterm V2 to make DECterm easier to use on PC servers with smaller
screens.  Ideally there should be some way to over-ride this.
