Hello, Yes, Windows/MacOS will remember the location and dimension of the Charts app when you close it. ---

What device/operating system are you using? Also, what version of the Charts app are you using? ---

Thanks for the extra information. We will need a little more to investigate further.

No, I’ve tried to reduce the windows (30% of the screen, but it is the same behaviour. I close it with the cross in the right up corner, perhaps there is other solution ---

That’s the correct way to close the application. It would be good to see if the `window-state.json` file remembers the window position.. It would be good to have this information so I can raise the issue with our developers. ---

The link to another thread where my colleague gives advice.. it would be good to see how your window-state.json file reacts. > [@Window size again!](https://forum.navigraph.com/t/window-size-again/15240/4): > > Thanks for this information!

Ups, sorry Gordon, I doesn’t saw the link : The requested file = {“width”:703,“height”:522,“x”:-1229,“y”:184,“isMaximized”:false,“isFullScreen”:false,“displayBounds”:{“x”:-1463,“y”:0,“width”:1463,“height”:915}} ---

You need to position the Charts window in your preferred location first, then make a note of the position in the `window-state.json` file, then close the Charts app. Then, open charts back up again to see if the `window-state.json` file has changed. This is explained in the second part of that post Malte wrote. ---

Hi, first attempt : windows is in required position/size (see picture) {“width”:1234,“height”:916,“x”:-1379,“y”:120,“isMaximized”:true,“isFullScreen”:false,“displayBounds”:{“x”:-1463,“y”:0,“width”:1463,“height”:915}} second attempt : I close it and reopen =\> size and position are not restored and part of the charts windows is on my second screen {“width”:933,“height”:850,“x”:-1450,“y”:13,“isMaximized”:false,“isFullScreen”:false,“displayBounds”:{“x”:-1463,“y”:0,“width”:1463,“height”:915}} ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/navigraph1/original/3X/b/d/bdd5d6e31a5b0dad6752afd991afb21c7f7e0781.jpeg) ---

Gordon it is clearly a problem with “2 screens” usage because I’ve just tried with one screen keep perfectly its position/size ---

Thanks for the update! Close the Charts app and go to the directory where the Charts app configuration sits 1. Press Win + R 2. Type `%appdata%\Navigraph Charts` and press enter Rename this folder to Navigraph Charts+test to isolate the folder. Once it is renamed, open the charts app again, reposition the window and close it. Does the app remember the new position now? ---
