Describe the bug

When opening Zed it should remember previous window size and position when Zed was closed.

To reproduce

1. Open Zed, set expected window size and position.
2. Close Zed.
3. Open Zed again.

Expected behavior

Expected: previous window size/position is honored. Now: Using same size and location at startup.

Environment

Zed 0.49.1 – /Applications/Zed.app \nmacOS 12.5 \narchitecture x86_64

+1 — this is going to sound ridiculous, but it's a blocker for adaptation for me as I open a lot of temporary windows in my workflow (currently using Sublime.)

+1 — this is going to sound ridiculous, but it's a blocker for adaptation for me as I open a lot of temporary windows in my workflow (currently using Sublime.)

I don't think it is ridiculous, it is a pain to reset everything up every time.

This and a "recent" file menu (#77) is adding unnecessary friction to getting started with my work. Hard to measure the pain threshold, but its in the back of my mind every time I open Zed.

An option to "reopen where left off" (last project and files open from before last close) would also be lovely!

This was the first thing I noticed when I launched the app. I'm glad to see other people care. The mention of serializable workspaces (#430) makes me worry about it being tied to saving a workspace. I basically only care about the default new window size which I would think would be tied to a new (unsaved) workspace.

I just came here to say the exact same thing as @emlynmu – this should be separate behavior from serializing workspaces. On macOS, whenever you open a new window of an existing (well-behaved) application, it matches the size of the most recent[^ish] window. It should also open in a new position, offset down-and-to-the-right (with "wrapping" that respects positions of existing windows) behavior.

Here's how it looks with VS Code (it took them years to get to it, but they finally did 😂):

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2403023/202511452-ad570e9c-535e-494e-92f1-6d318778c40c.mp4

[^ish]: ish, there are subtleties; it's something like "most recent window which actually had focus" or "root window" when you have a hierarchy of windows etc.

Thanks for the behavioral explanation @chriskrycho! :D

This should go out with v0.72.0.

I regret to say: This is not quite fixed in 0.72.x, though it took a big step forward: It is fixed when saving workspaces, and appears to remember the position used for a specific folder, but the feature request here is for a muuuuuch more general feature! See e.g. my example above—and note as well that you can trivially reproduce this by just opening any folder and then opening any new window!

If I close Zed while fullscreen it still won't start in fullscreen mode. It would improve consistency if it would remember the mode across restarts.

Bump, cc @JosephTLyons

I think it would be ideal if the new editor window had the dimensions of the recently opened project window. Don't like it when a 'clean' window takes up the entire desktop.

This is a problem for me as well (running v0.119.16), and super annoying as well.

I don't have any projects open. When I launch Zed, it's to an empty/blank new file window.

I'll adjust the size and location of the new file window, to my liking. I then close Zed.

When I reopen Zed, the window doesn't have the previous size/location of the window and instead reverts to being max width/height of screen.

(Thanks for all the great work on Zed)

+1, it's crucial. I'm using 32:9 ultra wide monitor + Rectangle for resizing my windows. I know probably using such monitor isn't good for coding, but usually I place all my windows in the center of the screen, and it's fine for me.

When I want to quickly edit some files (e.g. "Open With... -> Zed.app"), every time the editor opens full screen and I need to manually adjust the size of the window.

What's interesting, is that the editor does remember the last position, but particularly for a single file, and it's not possible to remember window size and position for other files that were not open yet.

My Jetbains products and vs code does remember size/position, but zed does not, which is huge blocker.

My use case is that I always use Zed exclusively in fullscreen. If it can remember its size and position maybe it can also remember if it was fullscreen or not and open in the same way..

This bug is related to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/4656 ("Window size & position are lost if I quit Zed in fullscreen")

Piling on, but this is a real usability feature for making zed a default editor (or $EDITOR). That it fires up over the whole screen, and I immediately have to switch to mouse to fix that, is far from the end of the world, but vexing for ad hoc editor use cases.

I see it tagged into workspace serialization, but it's not really workspace level storage (if that is what I think it is), but usage as a text editor (replace vim/emacs) instead of IDE (replace VSCode/IDEA), outside of existing workspaces. New windows, even if not in an already used workspace, should not assume full-screen is the correct initial size.

This should go out with v0.72.0.

@JosephTLyons , any updates on this?

It's been 1-year since you mentioned a fix for this would be pushed out.

I've proposed it as an item for our quality week sprint that will take place next week; I think we will have a meeting to iron out what will officially stick, so I'll update after that.

Thank you so much for the kind words! It means a lot to me. ❤️

This has been implemented, and should be available on preview.

Confirm, it works!!!

I'm running Zed Preview 0.127.1

When I close a window now, Zed remembers both the size and position.

Wahoo!

Many thanks Zed team

@mikayla-maki @JosephTLyons

Yesterday I reported this was fixed, but today I'm having odd behavior.

For some reason now, every time I open Zed (either the app itself or a new window) - it's always about 1/2 width (of screen) and 1/2 height (of screen) centered to my monitor.

It is not persisting the size and window location I change it too.

Essentially, when this enhancement request was originally made - Zed was always opening full screen width & height. Now, Zed is always opening 1/2 width & height.

I don't think this Enhancement request is working properly.

In case it help, my Settings are below:

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

@brianm are you noticing the same strange behavior I am, as indicated in my previous comment?

@michealp-coder Ugh, you are right, I am able to replicate that. It remembers a smaller size, so the experience is better, but it

1. Doesn't remember the actual last window size
2. Doesn't remember the window location

I have tried a few sizes and locations. If I quit zed, then open foo.txt from the shell, I get two windows -- foo.txt and the most recent project I have opened. It feels like the project window is influencing the one-off window, but I may be seeing patterns in tea leaves

@mikayla-maki @JosephTLyons unfortunately, this is not working (as originally thought).

Can this Enhancement request be reopened?

See both my last few comment & brianm for more detail.

If I leave it running and just close windows (splat-shift-w) instead of quitting it behaves pretty nicely. Not perfect, but treat as emacs-daemon and things work :-)
