Xavier,

I, too, am sorry you're having so many problems. Couple points to note:

The Geometry Manager, while slick, has some 'getting used to' in using it.
I, like Richard, just use the resizeStack command. I feel the same about the
Animation palette.

The reason why when you expand a window it doesn't go full-screen is because
RR resets the windowBoudingRect to an area inside the IDE. You can of course
overide it by entering into the msg:

set the windowBoundingRect to the screenRect

The scrolling breakpoint dot is a known problem. Hopefully, the script
editor/debugger will be rewritten soon. There's talk about making it
separate windows again, though don't know what will be. Here may be a great
place you can contribute as you've spent quite some time in the script
editor yourself!

Check out:
http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/altPluginCover/about.htm
for my altPlugins. It's a resizable toolbar which is easily added to. You
can add your own stacks and plugins to do lots of stuff the IDE doesn't do.

best,

Chipp
