Here's the simplest form of the test program

pro testwin
window,xsize=870,ysize=870
print,!D.y_size,!D.y_vsize
print,!D.y_size,!D.y_vsize
return
end

IDL> testwin
% Compiled module: TESTWIN.
870 870
856 856

The reason I previously included get_screen_size is that the problem only occurs when opening a window on my machine with a Y size between 856 and 878, in other words between the full screen size and the effective screen size which accounts the 22 pixels needed for the menubar.
