GExperts FAQ: Why does the Grep Results window not remember size and position?

Delphi, GExperts 1 Minute

The Grep Results window (and several other windows) can be docked to the IDE. To allow that GExperts does not save their positions and size but lets the IDE do that, which means these settings are part of an IDE desktop.

While this can be convenient in the case of a docked window, it can be confusing for a floating window. Here are the steps to save the position of the Grep Results window:

  1. Move and size the window as you want it to be.
  2. Save the current IDE desktop.

There are additional steps if you don’t want the Grep Results window to show automatically when that desktop is selected:

  1. Close the window.
  2. Save the current IDE desktop again.

Repeat these steps for every IDE desktop you use (e.g. startup, default and debug).
