Restore custom window positions

Thank you Rolf.

I installed Mercury yesterday, and have too many other problems right now. I will come back to this option later.

It would be great if there was a command that allowed you to restore the window positions for the modules.

I had to minimise some of the windows and when I used Window > 'Module name' the module's window was restored at the position where I was in the main application window. This meant I had to drag it back to its custom location. The ability to restore a custom layout would be great.

Thanks

Does "Save and lock window positions" (in the Window menu) not work in this case?

Hi, Rolf

I have 'Save and lock window positions' checked but it only restores the window positions of each module if Mercury is restarted.

I have 7 modules arranged in the Mercury window. They are arranged so that I can see enough at a glance to determine what is happening. If I minimise the SMTP window at the top of the Mercury window and then use the scroll bar to move down and look at, say, the http module, if I click the Window menu and choose SMTP the SMTP module's window is restored over the http module's window.

The position relative to its original location is preserved. So, if you had the SMTP window tucked tight in the top right-hand corner of the Mercury window, minimise SMTP, scroll down, then restore the SMTP window it will restore in the top right corner of the current position, not at the top of the Mercury window.
