Give the restored window a sensible default size#69
Merged
Conversation
The frame starts maximized, and on a first run nothing ever set its restored rectangle, so it kept the CW_USEDEFAULT one MFC created it with. Un-maximizing therefore dropped to a small window on any screen, large ones included, and the panel gained scrollbars it had no reason to need. Set the restored rectangle to three quarters of the work area, centred, before maximizing. It scales with the display instead of being a fixed guess, and it only applies when there is no saved placement to honour.

That scales with the screen rather than being a fixed guess, and it only applies when there is no saved placement to honour, so it never overrides a size the user has chosen.
Reported from VM testing, where un-maximizing showed scrollbars regardless of resolution. Pairs with #68, which cut what the panel demands in the first place.
