# To subscribers of the xforms list from Jan Menzel <jmenzel@mail.desy.de> :
Hello all,
still working on a multi-window application, I have recently
discovered some inconsistentis in XFroms:
- fl_set_form_position does not set the position correct for the _first_
form. On every following form it does. Using WindowMaker 0.62.1 on
glibc2.0 Linux the offset is about 1pixel in x and 13pixels in y.
- fl_set_form_position seems to moves the form to an other position if the
form is already opened. fl_set_form_position(); fl_show_form(); seems
to be not the same as if exchanged.
- FL_PLACE_*: it seems that there are some unmentioned features in XFroms:
restoring a windows geometry and displaying it then with scalable size
is - at least according to the manual - not possible. FL_PLACE_GEOMETRY
| FL_PLACE_FREE or FL_PLACE_GEOMETRY | FL_SIZE_FREE does not work. But
FL_PLACE_POSITION does it. I would suggest makeing place in
fl_show_form() a ored list of a FL_PLACE_* argument describing how to
place the window and FL_SIZE_* describing how the window can be resized.
Cheers Jan
