Maybe this explains: gis.m doesn't read nor write to the WIND file,
while d.zoom/g.region do. What you change with d.zoom/g.region will not
affect gis.m display (unless you press 'Zoom to current region' from
gis.m menu) and vice versa: if you zoom/pan in the gis.m canvas it will
not affect WIND file, ie. current region settings. Check with g.region
-p for yourself.
it means, if I zoom into a region with gis.m and say 'g.region save=XX' in the
CLI and afterwards "zoom to .. region" it won't work - I tried it - well it
does not make sense for me who is working on the CLI and GUI.
How do I define a new region, if gis.m and g.region does not talk to each
other? Everytime starting d.mon x0 - d.rast XX - d.zoom - g.region save=XY
and then it works in gis.m as well or is there a "gis.m-way"
sorry, if I misunderstood you but I am a bit confused about g.region/d.zoom
vs. gis.m.

gis.m or d.m (d.zoom)?
gis.m with the included zoom function in the monitor
If d.m, it behaves exactly the same as d.zoom and there's nothing there
could be done about it.
In of gis.m you have drawing modes:
Constrain map to region geometry
Map filles display window
The first mode behaves pretty much like d.zoom (only it doesn't modify
WIND file), the latter is maybe what you are looking for.
Does that explain?
thanks, now I found the buttons on the right hand side - ,-)
well but it does not explain why the visible extend (white space vs. grey
background) becomes smaller and smaller (by zooming out with very elongated
rectangle) when selecting "constrain map to region geometry", does it?

I suppose this is all your missundersting of region handling in gis.m.
hmm, probably, thanks so far; I think I have to become more accustomed to
gis.m.
have a nice evening, Martin
