[Gambas-user] window placement

Fri Feb 18 22:47:55 CET 2022

No bug tracker has been done this is that one where regardless of the top and left properties of the window the window does not move it stays in whatever random place it was put on. As I recall you guys seemed to feel that it was a glitch that needed to be repaired this was discussed about 2 weeks ago
