When my program creates a file, it sometimes places it in the upper
left hand corner of the folder, as if I had used SetFInfo with
fdlocation = (0,0).  By monitoring the program, I am sure that I am
not setting such values explicitly with SetFInfo (although I do set
other values). By using GetFInfo, it seems that this location is
selected by Create (and since I don't change it, the location remains
at 0,0). There are two places in my program that create files, and
each place creates more than one. Files created in one section always
get placed in an empty locations; in the other location, the icons
stack up at location 0,0. Has anyone seen this kind of behavior or
have an idea why it is happening?
