Richard,
After you asked that, I got to thinking why would I want this function in
stdLib? And in all the years of using Rev, I have never had the need to
use "isStackCurrentlyVisibleOnAnyMonitor."
So, I'm not sure clogging up stdLib with it is a good idea. That said, I
suppose if one saves window positions from launch to launch, it could come
in handy to make sure the display config hasn't changed and a window is
positioned 'off screen.' I know for instance the 3.0 Rev IDE could use it as
sometimes the Rev Help stack get's positioned off screen (after a crash)>
They should check any IDE stacks' "isStackCurrentlyVisibleOnAnyMonitor" when
opening it.
In anycase, please know it's fine with me if you don't include it.
