Please show me how exact after rebuilding source. Screenshot...?

Yes.

Ok, please test it. If it displays in a wrong place then explain me
your use cases. Maybe with before/after screenshots. I don't understand
your use case complete.

Could you tell me how to get "Memo". I don't know this tool.

So you mean you like to open a window with an initial position bigger
as your screen? This is exactly what I liked to prevent, because I'm
gone crazy with this. Could you tell my why it's useful to open windows
bigger as your screen? Maybe I've simply not seen the use case...
