The window manager controls the layout of windows on your screen. It allows windows to overlap, and, when clients are first started, it positions client windows in what it thinks are the best possible locations.
The session manager, scosession, stores the layout of the windows on your screen in $HOME/.odtpref/ScoSession/dynamic. Each time you start the Graphical Environment, you can specify that scosession either resumes with the window specifications saved from your last session (the configurations saved in the $HOME/.odtpref/ScoSession/dynamic file), or you can specify that scosession start the Graphical Environment with the default configurations.
The default Graphical Environment configurations are those defined either by you or by the system. You can change geometry configurations with the mouse, or you can specify geometry configurations with the geometry resource variable or with the -geometry command line option. Both the geometry resource variable and the -geometry command line option take the same arguments: the window's width, height, xoff (x coordinate offset), and yoff (y coordinate offset), where all four arguments are numbers specifying size or location.
