I’ve just finished making extensive testing with various multi-monitor layout configuration and fixed several quite nasty bugs. Latest changes to libs-back made at least -placewindow:: method more reliable to changes which are made by NSWindow to _frame ivar. It is especially important when X11 coordinate of a window is not changed but OpenStep's must be updated (if monitor layout changed from horizontal to vertical). At this point I consider multiple monitor support as completed. Although some checks and testing to “AutosaveFrame” is planned. Meanwhile encourage you to make testing of multi-monitor layout and notify me so I can fix bugs before release. Sergii
