[BUG] Mac OSX Simulator refreshes on different screens

Hi,

Using build 2013.1193 on OS X 10.7.5 and since starting with Corona many builds ago I’ve always had this problem where the simulator sometimes fails to remember where it is located on the screen, or even which screen it is on. When I refresh with new code in the lua files it will sometimes move to another screen or another location/position.

Is this a known bug and/or can it be solved?

Hard part is that I cannot always reproduce it, but it does fairly regularly occur.

Corona SDK is now on build 1202.  I don’t remember which build, but there have been changes since 1137 affecting the sim’s display.  I do know that if I change skins, it goes the last position that skin was used.  I wouldn’t call it a bug, but I can see where it’s might be an undesirable effect. 

I can’t think of a reason why you’d want the skin to change and the sim moves to some last bad location. That “feature” should at least be a preference that users can turn on/off.

I will apply the latest build and see if it removes this behaviour from occurring as often as it does - as for me, it happens without changing skin, but yes I agree I’ve seen it with skin changes too (and I thought it was just the one bug).

Its particularly annoying when making multiplayer game and you have 2 sims running and refreshing a sim moves the sim over the other sim.
