Why don't you just get the size of the screen and take a percentage of it? like make it 2/3 screen width and 2/3 screen height.
Make it so that people on large displays don't end up having to resize the window every time?
The idea is to store the size in preferences, and therefore it must be a fixed number, not some algorithm. Users will be able to set this size for newly created documents in preferences; in saved & loaded documents it is saved with the document and restored automatically.
I'll not comment on the desire to have it specifiable in preferences But why can't it be an algorithm? You set the default to be -1,-1 and the first time the program is run it calculates the percentage of the screen and stores that for future requirements.
