I love when Reaper randomly decides to dock things like the media explorer and track manager because 2 years ago I docked them once, and EVERY SINGLE TIME since that I've had to undock them when they open regardless of project or template saved.
This is absurd. Can Reaper please just let me decide where and how to position my windows? I am sick and tired of guessing where windows will open. And I hate that I have to undock the same damn window every single time I open it in any project. How can anyone FORCE windows to open docked or floating from now on? Luck. It's luck.
There is zero logic applied here. Tragic.

Screenset problems still present in 5.40. I have noticed that when some window is docked or adjusted manually, the saving of this position is managed differently that when it is readjusted by calling up a screenset, I would say with higher priority.

Hello,
same here...
I totally love screensets, just pressing a Function key and voilà, totally new workflow for the current task. But, when I open reaper, it seems to default to another screenset.
I only wish I could, when opening Reaper, automatically call a SWS function, that would solve the problem.

I don't think I see this occurring FWIW. Not that I pay that much attention but I did just have a project with TCP on monitor 1 and all my VSTs, track manager etc on monitior 2, closed the project, came back to it and everything was the same.
I've also never seen what is docked and what is not, not remain between runs so not sure what the commonality is - if it helps, I never use screensets.

This is why I put the main screenset that I use in SWS global startup action. Then Reaper loads properly every time.
I think, when screensets change the dimensions of some parts of Reaper interface, this is not immediately written to reaper.ini, you need to i.e. click on the edges of the arrange view for things to stick.
There's definitely something iffy here, Justin.

I guess I have to do that as well ED, thanks. SWS it is. I tried it before as a hack fix and yes it works, but Reaper does 100% load the 'wrong layout' as usual for about 1-2 seconds, then flickers and changes to the SWS layout. So it works, but A it's ugly and flickering for a few seconds, and B very annoying that this is as good as we can expect overall. For now.
Iffy indeed. Thanks ED.

I know it's no real help, but I do not have any problems like what you are discussing. Here Reaper opens up the way it was closed down every time, except when a new version has been installed. Then I hit F7 to load a window screen set and all is hunky dory. No need here for global startup action or anything like that.
Reaper v5.76/x64 portable install on W7x64pro.
Double monitors with the docker full screen on the left and the main window full screen on the right.
And I just now tested and loaded another screen set with mixer docked to main window on only the right screen, closed down Reaper and then started it again, and sure enough, the same window layout as when it was closed popped up.
Maybe try a portable install...?

Since this is obviously not just a load of bullshit but a genuine issue, I am rather surprised the devs haven't reacted at all in this thread. Maybe they are expecting to see a formal deputation from the Angry Villagers?
Even if I don't suffer this problem, I feel for you guys that do.
Oi! Justin!!

I love REAPER but it shouldn’t require a script to load properly, if using screensets...

Correct. Same here. I still see the wrong windows on screen flicker prior to the script working so I always can tell Reaper is still broken. Extra 5 seconds to load. It's a lot of people.

Yes...
and as Reaper 6 GUI flickers even more when loading screensets or simply resizing TCP or mixer... this is slowly stating to annoy me, more and more...

A thought: I have been watching this thread for 4.5 YEARS now & there seems to be little or no reaction from Justin or Schwa in a very long time.
I have no horse in this race, because I dont use screensets at all now.
But IF I had this problem, after 4 years it would really piss me off, work-around or no work-around.
I already said "Oi Justin!" once a couple of years ago, but maybe we should grab the pitchforks & light the torches....

But that's the problem. We WOULD use screensets if they didn't flicker and glitch out every time. We are forced to just not use them and work around that with other means. Nag lol. Thanks

after putting my main screenset in the sws startup action I really haven't given this much thought since.

So you think we should just accept they aint going to fix it?
Hmmm... Would be nice to hear from them as to why it`s been left on the back burner so long. Especially if the reason is that they don't intend to do anything to change the behaviour.
Maybe I am just being too anal retentive about the whole thing.

I am finally able to replicate this kind of issue on my Win 10 computer. I've recorded short video (mp4 - 2 MB).
1. load screen set
2. swith to other screenset
3. restart Reaper
4. layout and type of windows are completely different than any screenset
Justin, let me know where i can send the video.
Thx!

Can anyone suggest me any Cockos email, so i can send video to it? Thank you.
There are 2 screenshots showing the layout before closing Reaper and layout after opening Reaper again. Obviously something completely different. Tried to run as admin, no luck.

I have a theory that if you don't use screensets you'll never run into the problem.

I used screen sets for 18 months and had nothing but trouble with it. I finally just cleared the settings and never used it again.

Yes this is a bit annoying, I'm on linux & having the same problem. When you startup a project no screenset is selected just a jumbled mess. The sws global setting with screenset one selected only works on initial startup but if you start a new project after reaper is open it's a mess again.

After some years without issues, now updating to 6.08 I am having this issue again. When I open REAPER the Transport and Mixer windows are floating. I load a layout to fix it, exit REAPER and then start it again and they are back floating. Docking manually again the windows works after restarting REAPER. Loading a saved layout doesn't. I think it has to be a bug in the layouts system.

It's for sure a bug. Dug in there like a tick. Please let it be squashed for good.

What I do different is, Win 10 Pro 64bit is I open my Reaper template from the taskbar, 8 drum tracks, Kontakt, Omnishere, click track and an empty stereo track for what I plan on playing to. I definitely got luckily this way and use F keys for screen sets on two monitors. If anyone would like me to screen record it, I'd be happy to.

Having this same issue on Mojave / Reaper 6.15. Never had it until I started using screensets / layouts.
