Problem with window sizing/placement using experimental Mac Driver

Hi,

I'm running CrossOver 12 on a 17-inch MacBook Pro (mid-2010) under Mountain Lion (10.8) with 8GB RAM. I have the experimental Mac Driver enabled on a bottle that only has Microsoft Word 2007, PowerPoint 2007, and Publisher 2007. When I start one application such as Word 2007 or PowerPoint 2007, it is very difficult to size and place the window where I want it - the window tries to disappear off the top of the screen or resizes itself to a shaper and location that is not what I want. Through repeated attempts, I have managed to get a window for Word and powerPoint to sit where I want it, but as soon as I move or resize it the same problems recur.

I realise that this is due to my running the experimental Mac Driver, so I hope that the driver evolves quickly to be more robust. If I can provide any info to help overcome this problem, please let me know.

Regards,

David
