Package: jabref
Version: 2.1-1
Severity: normal
This may well be a problem with the AWT libraries, in which case
please reassign.
If I start jabref on a Xinerama multihead setup, the splash screen
is displayed in the logical middle, so half of it is on one and half
on the other screen.
Then, when the main application window appears, it will always
appear on the head where it was last closed. Apparently, jabref
saves the dimensions when it shuts down. Those dimensions are,
however, not Xinerama aware. If I have two 1024 screens, then it is
true that windows on the right screen are positioned with x value
above 1024, but what should really be saved (if at all) is the
position relative to the current head, and not the head itself.
I suggest that Jabref at least gets an option to disable all forms
of dimension storage, and that this option is turned on by default
on Debian. Dimension of windows is the job of the window manager,
not of the application.
