Launch and restore on the same screen

Hi,

I'm not sure if I should report it as a bug or feature request.

I use 3 screens and most of applications remember location of their windows (last location),
for instance Firefox, also Windows Explorer or TC save their position as well.
So, when I launch new instance of application, its window is automatically placed
in the same screen where the application was used and close last time.

It would be useful if FC can restore its last position automatically on next launch.

Try it with a NOT maximized window.

Yes, not maximized option works well. Thanks!
However, it seems a bit tedious to remember to de-maximize each and every time before closing.
So, I'd like to keep my feature request up :-)

If you have always maximized window, you can resize window size to almost full screen, this size will be remembered so you don't need to do anything else.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it sounds like a bit ridiculous prosthesis. Programs are to solve this kind of tedious problems. It is not any technical problem to save windows position and restore it on launch.

p.s. if FC was Open Source, I'd just fix it myself :-)
