Window height decreases each time Mockups is launched
This is a strange one and it's not much of an annoyance, but I noticed recently that each time that I launch Mockups the window height decreases by about 15 pixels or so.
So, if I maximize the application, then close and restart it, the window is now no longer maximized. I tried this many times in a row and found that it continued until the window was roughly half the height of my display and it didn't shrink any more from there. The top, left, and right edges remain flush with the edges of my display, it is only the bottom edge that shifts up.
This has been happening for at least 2 months or so and possibly long before that.

Inappropriate?Hi there, I just fixed this (finally). I tested it on OS X, XP, Vista and Ubuntu Hardy, but if you could give it a whirl I'd appreciate it: http://www.balsamiq.com/products/mock...
I'll merge the fix in 1.6 on the next update

Inappropriate?Technically, this does solve the problem I reported, but I don't like the side-effects. If I have Mockups maximized and I close it, when I reopen it it is no longer in the maximized state, although the dimensions are the same as the maximized dimensions. I see three problems with this:
1. it doesn't open in the same state as when I closed it,
2. I can't resize the window because the edges are off the screen (I need to move the window above the screen area to see the bottom edges),
3. it forgets the unmaximized dimensions that I had before.
I am on Win XP.
I’m not satisfied

Hi Leon, let me look and see if I can save/restore the maximize state (not just the size) as well...not sure I have the APIs for it. Thanks for the clarification! -
one more thing: would you say this latest fix is a step backwards? -
Inappropriate?Yes, I would say it's a step backwards. The original problem never really bothered me, it was just more of a curiosity. It was at least a month or more before I even noticed it, I'd guess. But the inability to resize the window (issue #2 above) is an actual annoyance.

Inappropriate?Hi Leon, I just made it so that the maximized state is remembered across sessions, would you mind testing it here? http://www.balsamiq.com/products/mock...
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?Yup, appears to work. The window state is remembered and the height doesn't creep up like it used to. Thanks.
I’m pleased
