Even after unticking the boxes, E Still misbehaves with Memo, Eterm, and mplayer. > Ok, I see the problem now. I could also reproduce it with the > e_place_test "Resize Test".

Kill Memo, restart it from a console ... go in Lost list (what's abnormal), resize it because E limited creation to monitor size (with both box unticked). Is that in public tree ? I will rebuild E overnight. Gimme 18h. > I implemented now that the > lost window is moved to the nearest useful position. I think it will show Memo on some "random" monitor, in small size, and I will complain that Memo is not created in the right/full size as it used to few weeks ago. My Memo is created to size 256x3452 ... so if as dev, you have a funny hack to try to create directly a window to this size, you can test the issue without filling 200 entries in an app you wont install anyway :) lemme try ... YES :) this will do: Eterm -g 200x100 as long as THIS does not create an Eterm way bigger than your monitor (when the boxes are unticked of course), I *WILL* complain there is a bug.
