PS on macOS always starts in tiny window
Weirdest thing.. last release or 2, on macOS, PSlicer always opens in a tiny window. Never did this before. I can open, resize, quit or close.. and still it opens really tiny. Anyone see this on their macOS version? I’m running latest. Maybe I’m missing some obvious setting?

Crab does the MAC version still have the 'Restore window position on start' setting in Preferences>General ?
Make sure its ticked or it wont save your resizing or positioning.

On your version I don't use it. However on this issue you can try Drag the window close to another window then the window near the other window, that window will align without overlapping. You can position multiple windows adjacent to each other.

I use a Mac and I am not seeing this.

Okay.. and I don’t see anyone else reporting it.. maybe something unique about the way I installed it. I’ll delete old versions and maybe delete the PLIST file so it will regenerate.

@neophyl.. Thanks so much.. have been a Mac user for long time.. but never saw an app set that in preferences.. maybe just the apps I use. Anyway cured the issue. I also closed the GitHub incident report.

Its from when they were having all those issues with dual monitors and display drivers (which actually might still be an issue, not sure).
If I remember rightly if you moved PS onto the second monitor it was saving that position like it should when you closed the software, but then if you tried to open it again it wasn't even starting as it wouldn't start up on the second monitor. So they added in a setting so it wouldn't save the location if unticked as a way around that.
Now seems that for whatever reason that option is getting unticked on some installs/upgrades if your experience is anything to go by.
Anyway glad it was a simple 'fix' and not some sort of regression.
