Thanks. Good point. Starting in reduced size isn't the issue - hidden title bar is. Starting w/ the title bar & buttons hidden on a common 1920x1080 native (21.5 in.) monitor is odd. Nothing unusual about the monitor & no issue w/ other apps. I'd think many would complain about TBB 3.5 if it's widespread. This began *ONLY* in TBB 3.5 - 1st launch & has persisted (erratically). Checked this again in TBB 2.4.17 & no issue w/ opening size or position.On Sat, 2014-01-25 at 21:37 -0600, Joe Btfsplk wrote:Re: TBB 3.5 doesn't seem to remember its window position between sessions.The size of your window can leak information that reduces your anonymity, at least if Javascript is enabled (maybe even if it's disabled?). I suspect that TBB has been intentionally modified to start with the same window size every time. It sounds odd that it starts with the title bar off-screen though.
Further "testing" - TBB 3.5 opening UI alignment is erratic. Sometimes after maximizing, then closing - it reopens w/ title bar aligned - but often NOT. * Title bar being hidden on TBB start happens most often when I maximize its UI, then minimize, then close. That seems the MOST common scenario, when title bar's completely hidden on restart. But NOT ONLY time.
Not using any extensions, plugins - except default. Tried it enough to see, even w/ no other changes between restarts, proper title bar alignment is erratic. * If title bar IS aligned, TBB sometimes starts w/ bottom border hidden well below the Windows task bar (I've only 1 task bar row & "small" icons). Not a huge issue, as I can then maximize UI - but still odd.
Tested a bunch of apps & Firefox - none have these issues.Further, I've (always) had checked - "keep *task bar* on top," but NOT "locked" or "auto hide." No changes on task bar properties in ages.
* With TBB 3.5 started in part-screen mode & with (if) its bottom border hidden (that actually aligns w/ monitor's bottom IF... I hide task bar), when I hide, then UNhide task bar, TBB instantly adjusts its bottom border to just touch the task bar - for that session. But doesn't always remember ANY positions / alignment on next restart. When I think I've figured out sequence, it surprises me again.
* Sometimes, if click maximize UI button, then reduce, it'll immediately change UI position, so all but ~ the LOWER 1/4 of resizing buttons are hidden off the monitor. Sometimes NOT. But doing that, buttons *may* display OK.
* Still common for TBB 3.5 to start w/ title bar completely off monitor. If so, only way I've found to maximize TBB UI is IF... the bottom border is showing above task bar, drag it UP a bit, then PART of title bar instantly displays (showing small part of buttons). Then click maximize button. (Why would dragging TBB's bottom border make the title bar SUDDENLY jump / partially appear? Dunno - never seen it before.)
Whatever my Windows / display "settings" are, haven't changed & work OK w/ other apps & previous TBB versions.
That's why I asked - so not to file a bug if I'm the only one. Other than bug / Vista incompatibility, can't imagine why ONLY TBB 3.5 would do this.
