Seems that if you turn on Restore windows on startup option that bringing up a map and doing a fit then exiting will still have it come back off centered (not all map visible). I know I've seen it actually work though - just not sure how I got it to work when it was in TEST now that its live. My guess is that all things that change the map visibility extents are not storing into whatever this option uses to recover the map from.
I did just get it to work properly on the restore by moving and zooming and not sure what else - but I must have stumbled on some trigger to store the map info before exit. Not sure what specifically I did to trigger it.

Workaround: Seems if I mousewheel zoom in before I store its guarantee to remember it. No idea if this is a first time using option problem or not.

I wasn't able to see this with a random map I picked, so I might need a sample campaign/map where you see this happen along with the steps.

I can't seem to duplicate it once I've zoomed in on a map - like ever after the option is set. I'll try to pull a campaign from backup tomorrow that was before I touched the map or set the option.

I just came up in a map that worked yesterday (had a stored map correctly) and it came back up off center. I fit the map and exited and came back up and it was fine.
I have no reliable way of duplicating this that I can tell - it happens - I just don't know why. You'll have to wait for someone else to get some 100% duplicated campaign or hit on it in one of your own campaigns. Not seeing the pattern - only know it happens.
