Description

When I start Groovy Console, the input area is sometimes only one line high (rest of the window is occupied by output area). See screenshot.
After adjusting the size of the input area, it is remembered for a while (across restarts of Groovy Console), until it goes back to one line high after yet another restart. Happens at least once a day. Can't reproduce by quitting and immediately restarting Groovy Console, even if I try several times in a row.

Do you have a dual monitor setup?
I noticed the settings aren't always properly remembered all the time, and I thought it was in the case of a dual monitor setup.
Is it your case too?

Are you by any chance rebuilding Groovy between invocations of the console?

No, this happens with the downloaded distribution (1.7.0, 1.7.1) and without building manually between invocations. Haven't checked if it's still there in 1.7.2 and trunk.

does this happen any more on the head? I changed some of the preferences code a few weeks ago and I believe I fixed this. I have tested on Ubuntu and it is fixed.

I still have wierd resize issues with trunk on Windows when using dual screens - so I suspect that not everything is fixed.

The settings get saved to the following file on my Ubuntu machine:

~/.java/.userPrefs/groovy/ui/prefs.xml

And when the sizes get too big (4500x2200 +), the application won't un-minimize.

My temporary work-around is to create a 'groovyCon' script that deletes this file before launching the groovyConsole.
I also have dual-monitors if that helps diagnose the problem. My actual desktop workspace size is 3360x1050.
