Probably you could have a look at the screenRects property (2.7 and  
later) and, above all, set the windowBoudingRect in order to fit your  
needs:
In the IDE it's set to not allow a window to open overlapping the  
'revMenubar' stack.
set the windowBoundingRect to the screenRect before opening a window  
the size of which is the same that the screen is a way to go.
Another possibility is to set the loc of the stack to the screenLoc  
in preOpenstack.
