Hi Liz,

No, the problem doesn't happen when opening GnuCash.  In fact, the way GnuCash behaves on opening is just what I'd expect.  GnuCash will open on whichever monitor it was on when it was last closed. So if I had it open on my secondary monitor (#2) when I last closed it, then when I go to reopen it, it will open up again on #2. Similarly, if I last had it open and closed it on my primary monitor (#1), then when I reopen it, it will open again on #1.  And that's all fine.  That's working just like any other app (e.g., Chrome or Firefox or most anything else).

The issue with GnuCash is specifically with editing or creating Scheduled Transactions.  The Edit Scheduled Transaction window will always open up on the *other* monitor from where GnuCash is open. Specifically, if GnuCash is open on #1, then the Edit window opens on #2.  Conversely, if GnuCash is open on #2, then the Edit window will open on #1.  That's weird!  And wrong!

Has anyone else ever noticed this?  Or reported it (i.e., Bugzilla)?  Is there any workaround for it?

Tom

Hi all,

I'm not sure if anyone has run into this issue before; but I'd like
to know if there's a fix for this.  The issue is that I have a
Windows system with dual displays/monitors.
This is probably related to missing windows on opening where people
have a dual monitor setup.
In your example it is happening later, all the previous reports that I
recall were happening on openng.
