@xgdgsc:
1. Please make sure that you have restarted Compiz/Unity before testing
the fix.
2. Use the Place plugin to adjust place window settings, make sure you
use the default settings in General Compiz Options-Display Settings
(click on the 3 x to reset those).
3. Note that some windows (like

I'm quite sure I've restarted my computer.
I find it interesting that after I place the smaller display(1280*1024) left of
the larger(1920*1080) in system settings-Display, when I click sound settings,
system settings ,etc on the smaller display the window will always show on the
The workaround on #24 works for me in most cases. Except when I open
synaptic from the dash, the password prompt appears correctly while
the synaptic window appears afterwards always on the smaller monitor. I
have a 1920*1080 and a 1280*1024 monitor.

The problem here is (once again) that unityshell loads after the place
plugin and overrides its settings.
Also the standard setting of the Place plugin is not optimal if multi-
monitors are used, because the standard setting for Multi Output Mode is
set to Use active output device, which is

For all of you, who do not want until the fix is available via update
can simply edit the .xml files in /usr/share/compiz, namely
unityshell.xml and place.xml.
1. In unityshell.xml (sudo gedit /usr/share/compiz/unityshell.xml)
remove the line pluginplace/plugin in the relation type=after
block.
Here you can see the fix in action.
Other Place Plugin settings also work now, but this is the preferred behaviour
for most multi-display users.

Title:
New windows open on the wrong monitor

I've also had this problem - two monitors of equal resolution and the
place plugin configuration seemingly ineffective. I think I have a
workaround by following comment 10 from bug #930660, specifically:
CCSMGeneral OptionsDisplay Settings:
Overlapping Output handling=Prefer smaller output
Workaround doesn't work for me. I have two 1680x1050 monitors (via
Nvidia Twinview) and the in the first window placement is functional but
in the second, new windows appear in a pile at x:0 and y = to the last y
placement on the working monitor. :-/

I had the same problem (new windows placing on the wrond display if
using multiple displays with Unity in Ubuntu 11.10).
First I installed the Compiz-Settings-manager [sudo apt-get install
compizconfig-settings-manager].
In the Settings-manger, I checked the Place Windows-Plugin. There you

I don't know if this is related as I am new to Ubuntu, but I had the
same problem running Java applications from Eclipse. I switched to Gnome
(I was using Unity) and now the problem is solved.
I hope it can help.

Gnome is probably using a different window manager. Gnome Classic (without
effects) uses Metacity, Gnome Shell uses Mutter.

The 'Place Windows' plugin has absolutely no effect on the placement of
popup windows, which appear correctly if I open a popup from a window on
my top monitor (ie centered over the originating window) but always at
