lost windows
Submitted by godfailed on Friday, 2 February, 2007 - 20:15
I use jedit from my thumb drive, which works just fine. But on one system my display is in portrait mode the other system is a regular 1280x1024 resolution. My problem is that when I open a dialog box (say for opening a file or search) the window placements are saved from my old system and are way off my screen and I Can't access the windows. is there any way to change what location the windows open at?

properties file

In jEdit's settings directory there is a file called "properties". Take a look at this file and You will see it.
The simplest way to get all dialogs back is to delete this file. Then all Your hand-made settings go away.

Other way is edit this file:
- (sort all lines for better editing)
- delete all lines that looks like:

(anything).height=581
(anything).width=660
(anything).x=211
(anything).y=212
