SAS Editor Window Position

This is not exactly a programming issue, but SAS programmers may still know the answer: it is possible that SAS will save the settings after shutdown, so after rebooting the window will be the same. Our SAS works on the server, but this function still works.

SAS 9.3 TS Level 1M2 ("Base SAS")

X64_S08R2 Windows NT Server-Version

Windows version 6.1.7601

After starting SAS, the "editor" window appears in the place where it was before the last SAS close.

Now the problem is that when I open the second empty editor window (or when I open another SAS program through the SAS menu) this new editor window is NOT displayed at the place where I want it to be displayed - that is, at the same time where The first editor window is aligned.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure if later versions of SAS have improved in this regard, but anyway, here are a few workarounds:

  • Use the tilev(SHIFT-F4) and tileh(SHIFT-F3) commands when necessary. You can minimize unwanted windows and repeat to have, say, your editor and your journal.

  • Assign commands to the wdefkeys (F9) for predefined window positions / sizes. For example, I use these (which is good on a widescreen screen with an explorer connected - it adjusts the values ​​for your needs):

    F4: wdef 1 1 100 113
    F5: wdef 1 114 100 120
