load layout issue

This is a follow up to my earlier comments regarding spawning apps in
specific frames in a predefined layout. I apologize for partly
hijacking that thread. :)

Thank you Thorsten and Florian for your responses. I slightly modified
Forian's example and was able to load apps in specific frames.

However, I encountered a strange problem. With this code in autostart:

  hc load 1 '
  (split horizontal:0.025000:1 (split horizontal:0.750000:0  ...


tag one opens with frames in proper order, but the proportions are out
of whack. The first frame set to 0.025 actually gets set with a value
of 0.100. It is only when I reload, that it gets set to the correct
value.

Could you tell me what might be causing this? I have my load LAYOUT
settings at the very end of autostart.

Thanks again,

Kinley
