Toad for Oracle 15.1 doesn't remember the size/location of the Describe Objects dialog. It always opens close to full screen (not quite) and on top of the main Toad window.

Hi Ray, Thank you for reporting this. It is fixed in the current beta. -John

I tested in 16.0.12.1401 and it's not fixed, is there a newer Beta?

Ok, I'll communicate with you through the support case then.

Hi John, I Iinstalled 25.1 and same problem occured for me. This problem is occuring when the windows screen layout set %125. If the resolution set %100 everything works fine. But I used 16.3 version with same scaling (%125) without any problem. is it possible to check with this config.?
