But the copy of geany running over ssh is not the same geany binary i run locally - my local copy is only ever active on my external monitor (but it _might_ have, at some point, started up on the internal monitor and i moved it over to the external monitor). On both geany binaries i'm seeing the same behaviour - main window is on screen #2 while dialogs pop up over on #1. i don't see anything in geany.conf about the display but i do see a socket: stephan@infomat-dev:~/public_html$ l /home/stephan/.config/geany/ ... lrwxrwxrwx 1 stephan consol 26 Jul 8 13:52 geany_socket_infomat-dev_localhost_10 -> /tmp/geany_socket.d5368770 ... > Either that or its a display (like :2) that doesn't exist on your > local machine so the WM just shrugs and puts Geany on the screen its > started from and the dialog on :0 > Where would i find the persistent display setting? The only mention of ':' i find in geany.conf is: pref_template_datetime=%d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S %Z > PS Yes, fixing this sort of thing is not very portable as I know from > past heartache. IMO it's not worth the effort/pain to try to fix this in geany unless it's really just a missing API call (as Emil mentioned), but you already debunked that as being a gtk3 thing. It sounds like it would be a huge, ugly can of worms to me. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/
