That logic was wrong, too, since the lyxrc values overrode the geometry option. > Is 'if (posx != -1 && posy != -1)' really the right way to > check if lyx wqas called with the geometry option? No. It has nothing to do with the geometry option. The geometry option is handled internally by the frontend libs (qt, xforms and gtk), we never see it. 'if (posx != -1 && posy != -1)' tests for stored geometry values in lyxrc. Please read the documentation of QApplication::setMainWidget(), AFAIK the only way to not overwrite the geometry option with lyxrc values requires to set the lyxrc defaults before calling setMainWidget().
