Hi, check out this page for some working examples on how to reposition your window:

You can add the action to your project startup so that it starts wherever you prefer. You can even use actions to determine the user's screen resolution for relative positioning, etc. Hope that helps. :)

I'd start here:


-- This must be either TopLeft, TopRight, BottomLeft, or BottomRight
sLocation = "BottomLeft";


nHandle = Application.GetWndHandle();

tWindowSize = Window.GetSize(nHandle);
tScreenSize = System.GetDisplayInfo();

if sLocation == "TopLeft" then
nX = 0;
nY = 0;
elseif sLocation == "TopRight" then
nX = tScreenSize.Width-tWindowSize.Width;
nY = 0;
elseif sLocation == "BottomLeft" then
nX = 0;
nY = tScreenSize.Height-tWindowSize.Height;
elseif sLocation == "BottomRight" then
nX = tScreenSize.Width-tWindowSize.Width;
nY = tScreenSize.Height-tWindowSize.Height;
end

Window.SetPos(nHandle, nX, nY);

Keep in mind that this code doesn't take into account the position or size of the windows task-bar.
