"windowsize" as first command after starting ChimeraX does not work

[Elaine Meng]

Apparently resizes the whole window to that size, instead of the graphics window only; may be related to Rapid Access since it works if you already have something in the graphics window.

I thought it would still work to execute my script anyway and then again set windowsize manually, but it goes south, I guess because there isn't any graphics window area at that point (I start chimerax at system command line and specify the attached cxc file as input):
