However, I looked through ALL the preferences menus, and didn't see anything resembling "Show unseen message count in folder cache". Where is that? And in what version? (I'm running v2.4 - 06/23/2000 - Creaky, I know.) I went into twm with no virtual desktops, and it came up just fine. Going back to Enlightenment I saw the same behavior as before. Then I knew it MUST be something in the window manager, so I went digging. in my ~/.englightenment/...e_session-XXXXXX.snapshots.0 file I found all the settings that E. uses for remembering border styles, positions, shaded state, etc. I have a 1600x1200 screen, and it kept putting my window at 1655x150 (AND had it shaded to boot, so it was tiny as well as offscreen!) Searching for 'unseen' in that file found this section: NEW: exmh.Exmh NAME: exmh CLASS: Exmh NEW: unseen.UnseenWin NAME: unseen CLASS: UnseenWin DESKTOP: 0 RES: 1600 1200 WH: 114 173 XY: 1655 150 0 0 LAYER: 4 STICKY: 1 SKIPTASK: 0 SKIPWINLIST: 0 SKIPFOCUS: 0 SHADE: 2 BORDER: PAGER_LEFT_BLUE I changed: XY: 1655 150 0 0 to XY: 1455 150 0 0 so it would reappear in my viewable space, restarted Enlightenment (CTRL-ALT-End) and then restarted exmh. Bingo! There was my window! I quickly told Englightenment to forget everything about that window except is border style, and now have a sveldt little entry like so: NEW: exmh.Exmh NAME: exmh CLASS: Exmh NEW: unseen.UnseenWin NAME: unseen CLASS: UnseenWin BORDER: PAGER_LEFT_BLUE Completely an Enlightenment problem, not exmh. (Though I wonder how it got mixed up in the first place? I certainly can't move a window off screen like that. Unless it was part way over then snapped offscreen when shading.) Hmm. Weird. Anyway, thanks for the suggestions, folks. Hopefully this will be useful to someone scouting the archives in the future... :-) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.2 Comment: Don't know what PGP is?
