Sorry I should of been more clear. I can understand and accept the dialog centering, but the whole app is being recentered and part of it is going off screen. I started detaching tabs and dragging them to the second monitor, but when I switch tags and then switch back, all the detached tabs jump back to the first monitor @_@
haha, anyway, maybe it's time to look at emacs. Also, found a link to a plugin for eclipse that fixes some xinerama issues in KDE (http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Utilities/3-5-x-Xinerama-improvements-27124.shtml), but I'll switch to Windows ME before I switch to KDE </hyperbole> cheers -Alex On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 4:14 PM, Anselm R Garbe <ans...@garbe.us> wrote: > 2009/10/22 Alex Matviychuk <alex...@gmail.com>: >> I'm floating eclipse across the length of 1.5 monitors using xinerama. >> Whenever I use a dialog inside eclipse, it tries to center itself and >> considers the center as the center of the first monitor.
