I would like to set the size and the layout (Panes, etc…) of Juno by a configuration.

At the moment Juno size matches the last size used yet I want each time I start it to have a predefined size.

I also would like to set a default layout (Which Tabs / Panes are open).  
Is there a way to do so?

**Remark 02** : This is about Juno as packaged in JuliaPro `1.4.x`.

The window configuration of `Juno` can be set by the `init.coffee` file on `.atom` folder in the installation package.

By default, for Julia Pro (At the time of writing JuliaPro `1.4.x`), the file contains:

```julia-auto
if atom.config.get('julia-client.useStandardLayout')
  atom.commands.dispatch(atom.views.getView(atom.workspace.getActivePane()), 'julia:standard-layout')

```

### Window Dimensions

In order to set the dimensions and location of the window add the lines:

```julia-auto
remote = require('remote')
remote.getCurrentWindow().setBounds({ x: 10, y: 10, width: 1600, height: 1350 })

```

Where `x` and `y` are the location of the top left corner of the window in a coordinate system where `(0, 0)` is the top left corner of the screen.

### Default Layout

Basically the `Julia Client` extension can set the default Layout in its settings.  
In order to configure it in file one could use `config.cson`:

```julia-auto
"julia-client":
    uiOptions:
      layouts:
        openDefaultPanesOnStartUp: true

```
