Gorm was overriding the method styleMask in NSWindow/NSPanel and it shouldn't 
have.  Since Gorm allows the user to edit the styleMask without changing the 
window, it's necessary to store it in a different location until the window is 
to be encoded.

The method was being called by the new window decoration code when a .gorm file 
is loaded into the application and it was changing the size of the window.

This has been fixed in CVS.

Summary:  Panel Height gradually increased after every save/open

Original Submission:  I've noticed that everytime I go through the cycle of 
saving, closing, and then opening my Gorm (GSPageLayout.gorm), the height of 
the panel is increased slightly.  Over time, the size increase becomes large 
and I have to adjust.

I'm using cvs gorm and GS.  I'm also using Window Decorations, this may be 
having an affect, not sure.

It's not a really big deal because it's easy to correct, just thought I'd share 
the problem.

My research indicates that this is a bug in AppKit.   It is only apparent when 
the window being created lacks the resize bar on the the bottom.  I am still 
investigating.   I will look for a way that they can be minimized in Gorm for 
the time being, until I find a more permanent solution. GJC

I have finally been able to reproduce this.   I will need to do more research 
to determine the root cause of the problem.

If have thusfar had zero luck reproducing this.   Chad, please review your 
configuration and let me know.  

If anyone else can recreate this bug, let me know.   For now, I'm closing this 
bug.  GJC

Chad has confirmed the sequence of steps.

I will attempt the same under xlib...

I have tried it with the following configuration, on my laptop:

* SuSE 8.1
* GSX11HandlesWindowDecorations = NO
* back-xlib

I have tried it on my PC with

* SuSE 9.0
* GSX11HandlesWindowDecorations = NO
* back-art

using the steps outlined previously.  I am unable to reproduce this issue.  I 
will leave this issue open, but mark it as "Works For Me" for now. :/

My build was latest CVS as of 7/18/2004.

Under the same conditions doing the following:

1) Creating a new document
2) Adding a panel
3) Adding a button to the panel
4) Observing the size of the panel and the position of the button in the size 
inspector
5) Saving the file
6) Reloading the file
7) Checking and comparing the information in #4 with the results from the 
loaded file.

Has not reproduced the issue using back-art w/ decorations on.  If this is not 
the sequence of steps you are taking, please let me know. 

I will try it with xlib.
