I'm affected by this bug too, ans it is really annoying when this behavior happens to dialogs, confirmation windows or file selection windows.
I share my external monitor with a laptop (HDMI) and a desktop computer (VGA), and I use to switch the display from time to time to see what happens on my desktop -- so the external monitor does not always show an extension of my laptop's internal monitor. It's annoying when I expect a popup windows to open on my internal monitor -- say because I'm using an app on my laptop monitor while the external gets its inputs from the desktop computer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/930660 Title: with multiple monitors, applications appear on the wrong monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/930660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
