[PD-dev] minor bug: patch can open off-screen

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

This may have already been reported, but I didn't find it.  Basically,  
if a patch has coordinates that are off the screen, it will open fine,  
it just won't be visible.  While this isn't a big deal, when it  
happens, its confusing.  I just spent sometime wondering why my patch  
wasn't opening, and also not giving any errors.

I don't know off-hand, but maybe it wouldn't be to hard to get the  
current screen size from Tcl/Tk and compare the window placement to  
that.

Any chance of getting access to the bug database so I can report these  
myself?  Or maybe its time to look into bugzilla or sourceforge's  
bugtracking.

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of  
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an  
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps  
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the  
possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of  
it."
