Description Jeff Myers CLA 2005-12-06 21:38:37 EST 
On OS X, placing windows at location 0,0 causes the window's title bar to be obscured by the operating system's menu bar at the top of the screen.  This prevents you from selecting the title bar to move the window, or hit the close button.  The customize layout dialog is placed at 0,0 by default, so the only way to close it is to hit the toolbar button again.  A default location of 0,20 or so should be ok.

This also applies to classes launched with the Java Beans launcher as well, and the remote vm windows if you enable Show live window.

Is there some system property on OSX to query, or does Display.getClientArea() return the valid corner? I don't want to hardcode it because someone could change the font and thereby make the OS X title bar get bigger.

I just changed it so that the default location is actually 20,20 RELATIVE to the Eclipse workbench shell instead of relative to the whole display. See if that works.

Also, I changed Live Window to display.getClientArea(). See if LiveWindows show up correctly or are they also at (0,0).
