Copy & paste the following codes to your _gvimrc or .gvimrc.
It works good.
Restore screen size and position

This tip is useful if you always want Vim to startup in the same location and size as the time you exit it. Most applications (i.e. FireFox) do this already. Another reason to use this tip is if you often have more than one Vim (GUI on Windows) running. Quite often I will have one per project, each instance editing multiple buffers. When I start Vim, I name it (based on the project or tool I launched it from).
gvim myFile1 myFile2 gvim --servername MyProject filename1 filename2 filename3 gvim --servername VS_NET filename
When I re-open Vim I like its screen position and size to be the same as they were when Vim was closed. The scripts below can be added to your .vimrc file. They offer 2 configuration options which can be set at the bottom before the autocmds:
" To enable the saving and restoring of screen positions. let g:screen_size_restore_pos = 1 " To save and restore screen for each Vim instance. " This is useful if you routinely run more than one Vim instance. " For all Vim to use the same settings, change this to 0. let g:screen_size_by_vim_instance = 1
Version 1 (Vim 7 and above)
Edit
This version uses Vim's
readfile() and writefile() functions to access the file used to save the size/position. That in addition to the use of the split() function makes this version unusable in Vim 6.x.if has("gui_running")
function! ScreenFilename()
if has('amiga')
return "s:.vimsize"
elseif has('win32')
return $HOME.'\_vimsize'
else
return $HOME.'/.vimsize'
endif
endfunction
function! ScreenRestore()
" Restore window size (columns and lines) and position
" from values stored in vimsize file.
" Must set font first so columns and lines are based on font size.
let f = ScreenFilename()
if has("gui_running") && g:screen_size_restore_pos && filereadable(f)
let vim_instance = (g:screen_size_by_vim_instance==1?(v:servername):'GVIM')
for line in readfile(f)
let sizepos = split(line)
if len(sizepos) == 5 && sizepos[0] == vim_instance
silent! execute "set columns=".sizepos[1]." lines=".sizepos[2]
silent! execute "winpos ".sizepos[3]." ".sizepos[4]
return
endif
endfor
endif
endfunction
function! ScreenSave()
" Save window size and position.
if has("gui_running") && g:screen_size_restore_pos
let vim_instance = (g:screen_size_by_vim_instance==1?(v:servername):'GVIM')
let data = vim_instance . ' ' . &columns . ' ' . &lines . ' ' .
\ (getwinposx()<0?0:getwinposx()) . ' ' .
\ (getwinposy()<0?0:getwinposy())
let f = ScreenFilename()
if filereadable(f)
let lines = readfile(f)
call filter(lines, "v:val !~ '^" . vim_instance . "\\>'")
call add(lines, data)
else
let lines = [data]
endif
call writefile(lines, f)
endif
endfunction
if !exists('g:screen_size_restore_pos')
let g:screen_size_restore_pos = 1
endif
if !exists('g:screen_size_by_vim_instance')
let g:screen_size_by_vim_instance = 1
endif
autocmd VimEnter * if g:screen_size_restore_pos == 1 | call ScreenRestore() | endif
autocmd VimLeavePre * if g:screen_size_restore_pos == 1 | call ScreenSave() | endif
endif
Version 2 (Vim 6 and above)Edit
Here is an alternative script which uses a regular Vim buffer to manipulate the vimsize file instead of Vim 7's readfile() and writefile() functions.
" Restore screen size and position
" Saves data in a separate file, and so works with multiple instances of Vim.
if has("gui_running")
function! ScreenFilename()
if has('amiga')
return "s:.vimsize"
elseif has('win32')
return $HOME.'\_vimsize'
else
return $HOME.'/.vimsize'
endif
endfunction
function! ScreenRestore()
" - Remembers and restores winposition, columns and lines stored in
" a .vimsize file
" - Must follow font settings so that columns and lines are accurate
" based on font size.
if !has("gui_running")
return
endif
if g:screen_size_restore_pos != 1
return
endif
let vim_instance = (g:screen_size_by_vim_instance==1?(v:servername):'GVIM')
" read any existing variables from .vimsize file
silent! execute "sview " . escape(ScreenFilename(),'%#\ $')
silent! execute "0/^" . vim_instance . " /"
let vim_name = matchstr(getline('.'), '^\w\+')
let vim_cols = matchstr(getline('.'), '^\w\+\s\+\zs\d\+')
let vim_lines = matchstr(getline('.'), '^\w\+\s\+\d\+\s\+\zs\d\+')
let vim_posx = matchstr(getline('.'), '^\w\+\s\+\d\+\s\+\d\+\s\+\zs\d\+')
let vim_posy = matchstr(getline('.'), '^\w\+\s\+\d\+\s\+\d\+\s\+\d\+\s\+\zs\d\+')
if vim_name == vim_instance
execute "set columns=".vim_cols
execute "set lines=".vim_lines
silent! execute "winpos ".vim_posx." ".vim_posy
endif
silent! q
endfunction
function! ScreenSave()
" used on exit to retain window position and size
if !has("gui_running")
return
endif
if !g:screen_size_restore_pos
return
endif
let vim_instance = (g:screen_size_by_vim_instance==1?(v:servername):'GVIM')
silent! execute "split " . escape(ScreenFilename(),'%#\ $')
silent! execute "0/^" . vim_instance . " /"
let vim_name = matchstr(getline('.'), '^\w\+')
if vim_name == vim_instance
delete _
endif
$put = vim_instance . ' ' . &columns . ' ' . &lines . ' ' .
\ (getwinposx()<0?0:getwinposx()) . ' ' .
\ (getwinposy()<0?0:getwinposy())
silent! x!
endfunction
if !exists('g:screen_size_restore_pos')
let g:screen_size_restore_pos = 1
endif
if !exists('g:screen_size_by_vim_instance')
let g:screen_size_by_vim_instance = 1
endif
autocmd VimEnter * call ScreenRestore()
autocmd VimLeavePre * call ScreenSave()
endif
CommentsEdit
Feel free to add comments here for script improvements.
For the Version 2 script, since it uses Vim buffers for the manipulations it would be useful to disable all autocmds before opening splitting the buffer and re-enable them when closing the buffer. Many people have lots of plugins installed which can make opening buffers somewhat expensive (and therefore unnecessary time delay). Using the Vim 7 readfile() and writefile() functions avoid this overhead.
