Is there any way to make it so when I open FG it keeps the windows in a base location?
Every time I open FG I have to end up moving my chat, dice and dice tower.
This is what I want:
63656
This is what I get:
63657
Basically, every time I open FG, I have to move those 3 windows/panels. Is there any way to make them stay where I want? It's not hard to move the windows, but moving them every single session is a pain in the fanny...

It's working for me on my machine. I just created a new campaign and opened the CT like you have shown, unlocked and resized the chat window, and left the dice alone.
Can you try in a brand new campaign with similar steps that I did?
Also, a few more questions:
* What UI scale are you running at?
* What OS are you running?
* Do you have any OS-level programs running that resize windows on your desktop when they're started?
Thanks,

Did this and was able to duplicate the issue--before I realized what was causing the issue.
Also, a few more questions:
* What UI scale are you running at?
100%
* What OS are you running?
MS Windows 10 Home 10.0.19045
* Do you have any OS-level programs running that resize windows on your desktop when they're started?
No. At least not that I'm aware of.
I believe I found my issue. Honestly I just didn't put 2+2 together until I was trying to find as much information for you as I could. I use a lot of extensions. As a result, whenever I log into FG, I always hit the update button, even if it's not highlighted. After the update/check is completed the new launcher window loads minimized. Not really minimized but much smaller--see the pic below.

After the update, I would load my campaign and hit start, which would start the campaign in the minimized window and move my chat/die/die tower windows.
The solution is, update, hit the maximize button, load campaign and then hit start. If I do that, everything stays where it supposed to/the way I want it. Your questions helped to prompt me to look a little closer at the issue. Thanks for your time and help.
