Below is example code. Using Gambas 2.22 and Ubuntu 11.10
With a Form (FMain) and a Timer (Timer1). The following code will initially position the Form at the top of the available screen, but about 2 cm right of the LH edge (i.e. beside the Ubuntu Program Launcher Toolbar), when it should be fully at Top Left of the available screen. After 2 seconds the Form moves to 0,0, correctly, at the Top Left of the available screen, (pushing the UBUNTU Tool-Bar off the screen to the Left) then 2 seconds later it is moved to near the Screen Centre (and the Tool-Bar re-appears). If I comment out the code in SUB_new and un-comment the code in SUB_FormOpen the effect is the same. Interestingly this still happens even if I am running GAMBAS in Full-Screen mode, which has forced the Toolbar off the screen - the Form still starts up 2 cm from the Left-Hand screen edge, and also if I Compile the program to an Executable with "Make". If I start with larger values of X & Y in either _new or _FormOpen (e.g. 200,300) it works correctly. ' Gambas class file ' '===================== ' XY_BUG ?
