default drawer window postition

Post by Raziel »

Probably already answered, but i couldn't find anything.

If i create a new directory on WB (without an icon) the fealt drawer icon will be used obviously.
But when i open said default drawer the winow will always be at the same position, far to the top left of my WB big screen.

Is there a possibility to change that default position?
def_drawer.info doesn't seem to hold any information about that, or maybe i'm not seeing it.

Any help appreciated

It should. Of course you don't see it in icon information.

The normal way to change the default window position is to create a new drawer, open it, position and snapshot the window and then copy the changed icon back to envarc:sys/def_drawer.info.
