Out-GridView should remember window position

[tig]

I find it super annoying to have to resize it on my wide monitor. The default size it uses is crazy wide.

Is this the original out-grid view? If so, that needs to go in the PowerShell/PowerShell repo (and there might be an existing issue)

[tig]

I'm an idiot. Yes, I was running the old one. I just assumed import-module of the .dll that ocgv was in would have ogv in it too. I never ran it with -verbose so just assumed...

Much better default size. I still think it should remember size/position.

[TylerLeonhardt]

Should we close this then since it's about the old ogv?

[tig]

No, because I changed the title to be more specific to a valid feature request (that the new one doesn't save / restore it's window pos).

Is it possible on Unix? On Windows Registry is used to remember Windows size and position.

You just need somewhere to store one each of:

public enum FormWindowState
{
    //
    // Summary:
    //     A default sized window.
    Normal = 0,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     A minimized window.
    Minimized = 1,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     A maximized window.
    Maximized = 2
}

Point

Size

You do not need to use the registry. .NET Core provides a SettingsService that abstracts away where stuff is stored.

[iSazonov]

Can you point SettingsService API?

This should get you started. Sorry I mis-remembered the name...

@andschwa This should be closed as won't fix since it's for the Avalona version.
