Bug ID: 165541
Summary: CALC re-positions window depending on closing status
of the window on multi-monitor setup
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.9.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Two monitors:
Left monitor is the BIOS default monitor due to the port configuration of the
box and is a lower resolution.
Right monitor is defined as the primary monitor through the normal windows
screen management.
If a CALC is exited whilst in "full screen" mode then it re-opens on the right
side monitor. If it is exited in "reduced screen" mode then it re-opens where
it closed on the left side monitor.
I mean the "overlapping frame" symbol characteristics at the top right NOT the
"reduced to the task bar" symbol adjacent to it.
Steps to Reproduce:
1 Acquire two monitors - one with a lower resolution than the other
2 Connect the lower resolution monitor to the BIOS defined first video port and
locate it on the left of the monitor pair
3 Connect the higher resolution monitor to another genuine video port
If the left monitor is older kit it will probably be necessary to add a Display
Port/VGA video conversion adapter to the BIOS first video port
4 Using the "right click" screen context personalisation menu to identify the
screens, make the appropriate adjustment to define the right high res monitor
as the primary monitor and that it is a "one desktop" arrangement. Cursor
continuity will demonstrate the correct "fluidity" between the monitors
5 Open any CALC and locate it on the left low res monitor in "Full Screen" mode
6 MAKE ANY AMENDMENT then Save and exit
7 Re-open the CALC and observe that it is now on the right high res monitor
8 Move the CALC to the left low res monitor, the system seems to remember it's
diminished but ensure it is placed correctly inside the limits of the left
monitor with no overlap to the adjacent monitor
9 MAKE ANY AMENDMENT then Save and exit
10 Re-open the CALC - it should now be correctly positioned where it was exited
Actual Results:
Document displays on the "wrong" monitor
Expected Results:
Document displays on the last used monitor
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes

from upgrading are still awaiting resolution.
