Re: initial frame display problem with beta54 on NT

Hello John, John> I did a native build of beta54 on NT-4.0. I sometimes have John> a display problem with the toolbar in the initial frame. It John> is easy for me to reproduce because my initial XEmacs frames John> always come up in the same place. How to reproduce: My XEmacs migrates SouthEast on each new invocation. I put (print (current-frame-configuration)) at the end of my .emacs. Here is what I get for sucessive invocations on a 800x600 display: (frame-configuration (#<mswindows-frame "emacs" 0xb55> (name "emacs" height 40 width 91 minibuffer t left 0 top 0 custom-properties (type mswindows class color background light) background-mode light) #<window-configuration 0x174b>)) (frame-configuration (#<mswindows-frame "emacs" 0xb55> (name "emacs" height 40 width 91 minibuffer t left 44 top 44 custom-properties (type mswindows class color background light) background-mode light) #<window-configuration 0x174a>)) (frame-configuration (#<mswindows-frame "emacs" 0xb55> (name "emacs" height 40 width 91 minibuffer t left 88 top 88 custom-properties (type mswindows class color background light) background-mode light) #<window-configuration 0x174b>)) (frame-configuration (#<mswindows-frame "emacs" 0xb55> (name "emacs" height 40 width 91 minibuffer t left 132 top 132 custom-properties (type mswindows class color background light) background-mode light) #<window-configuration 0x174a>)) (frame-configuration (#<mswindows-frame "emacs" 0xb55> (name "emacs" height 40 width 91 minibuffer t left 22 top 22 custom-properties (type mswindows class color background light) background-mode light) #<window-configuration 0x174a>)) John> 1) start xemacs 2) start the task manager 3) set the John> task manager to "always on top" 4) move the task manager John> window so that the upper left hand corner covers the text John> "Print" in the toolbar print button. Resize the task John> manager window to the right so that it extends off the edge John> of the XEmacs frame. 5) kill the current xemacs and restart John> 6) most of the toolbar area on the left will display what John> ever is behind it on the desktop and ther will be about a John> button and one half ("open" and 1/2 of "dired") displayed on John> the right hand side of the toolbar. I was not able to reproduce this. How do you start XEmacs? What command-line args do you use?
