The problem is caused by how Tk and X11 measures window frames:
it measures it including all of the chrome around the window
(the button/title bar on the top, any framing on the bottom,
etc.) The window framing/chrome varies a lot depending on which
window manager, etc. you are using. <br>

Pd-extended places windows based on how things measure using a
standard GNOME install, since GNOME is the default on most
distros.<br>
<br>
So what you need to do is write a plugin that sets custom values
for your window manager. I think these are the variables you
need, but look in pd/tcl/pdtk_canvas.tcl for more info:<br>
<br>
set ::windowframex 5 (play with the numbers to get it right)<br>
set ::windowframey 5<br>
<br>
Once you get it working, post it to the puredata.info/downloads
page so others can download it if they're using the same window
manager. There are lots of other things you can customize too,
so you could make a plugin that makes Pd feel as native as
possible.<br>

Thanks for the help.<br>
I made some experiments with ::windowframex and ::windowframey and I
found out the following things:<br>
With ::windowframex = 1 and ::windowframey = 49, a loaded patch is
displayed correctly in the position previously saved. That's
beacause 49 is the sum of the heights of the wm's title bar and the
pd's menu bar, and 1 is the width of the wm frame.<br>
But with those settings the "new file" create a window outside the
screen (x = -1, y = -49).<br>
To fix that, I have to set ::windowframex and ::windowframey to 0,
but that makes the loading of a saved patch incorrect again (49
pixels below and 1 pixel to the left of the saved position).<br>
<br>
Is there different procedures to menage the "new file" and "open
file"?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
