Yes.  I found under Placement the following:-

    Minimum size of windows to trigger smart placement

However I don't see how that addresses my question.  What I want to do
is change *where* smart placement tries to put a window.

Without knowing what smart placement is trying to do there seems
little point in changing the size of window that it applies to!  :-)
