- Sub: Re: Saving window positions
-
- Saving these resources in the app's fork is not the AppleShare friendly thing
- to do (see IM Vol. V Chap. 21). Your app could be multiply launched from a
- file server. The advent of 7.0 will make this even more likely to happen
- (personal file share you know). One safe way is to keep a preferences file in
- the sys folder.
-
- I'm curious though shouldn't these window positions be document specific (check
- the 'shared data' suggestions at the cite above). Or are these windows totally
- local to the app?
