Where are Screen Dimensions?

Where are Screen Dimensions?
Thu, 28 Jun 2007 10:42:24 -050
Using Opera 9.21 build 3678 on latest OS X 10.4.9.

I want to experiment with changing some settings with TextEdit.  
I looked in:
Users/Me/Library/Preferences/Opera Preferences/Opera 9 Preferences. 
Under [Windows], Browser Window and I tried to change the height.  It 
sort of worked (my screen res is 1280 x 1024).  But it kept on going 
back to the original.  I didn't have Opera open when I was editing it 
of course.  The setting's normal value is:

Browser Window=0,22,1276,1002,2

I changed it to 0,22,1276,1202,2 and that did increase the height, 
sort of, then I tried 1302 instead of 1202 and that didn't seem to 
make much of a difference.  There was a space at the bottom though.  
It almost looked like it just raised the height of the window somewhat 
which doesn't help.

Anybody that knows what the 0, 22, and 2 numbers control, please reply!

I want to try to set Full Screen as the default window size.  Also, it 
would be great to be able to get rid of the grey bar with the 
red/yellow/green buttons on it.  But perhaps that is controlled by

The values you mentioned probably are the pixel positions of two window  
corners in relation to the upper left corner (0,0). So 0,22,1276,1002  
would mean:
   0 left, 22 down for the upper left corner
   1276 left, 1002 down for the lower right corner

Since the shape of the window is rectangular, only 2 positions are needed.

The 2 I can't identify. It may indicate a window size mode: minimized,  
maximized, regular, collapsed to the dock, docked to a side, etc. It might  
also indicate a multiple document or a single document interface. But I  
don't know for sure so it might be for something else.

One reason for the window not obeying your size setting could be that  
Opera's window automatically is shown at its max. It might not be Opera  
doing this: it might be the MacOS.
