Pure-data: Windows: patches are opened off screen if coordinates exceed screen size

[mxa]

Workaround is to edit the pd file source to bring it back to the screen. However, on Linux this is detected automatically and patches will open on the screen even if their stored window position would be outside of the screen. This doesn't work in the same way on win10.

darn.

@Spacechild1 Do you have time to try this? Tk is supposed to handle bad positions by moving them onto the screen and this works in macOS & Linux, but that may be up to the OS window manager...

[Spacechild1]

yeah, I know this issue... I'll try to tackle this, but rather for Pd 0.49.1 :-) right now I'm trying to fix a serious regression with the [donecanvasdialog( message...

I just need someone to confirm and test possible solutions. I added the multi-monitor window positioning handling for the last release.

[Spacechild1]

ah sorry, I misunderstood. yes, I can try your solutions!
