Yep, great Michael!
The topmost answer pointed in the right direction:

http://stackoverflow.com/a/18363772

So essentially this is the trick:

rosegarden -geometry 1366x768+0+0

(Obviously that's the resolution of my first screen as reported by xrandr).

Try this?

I don't have a multi-screen setup with which to test.  I could hook up 
another monitor, but I have no place to put it, so I never bought one.

[Rosegarden-user] Force rosegarden to start on first screen

2016-03-15 Thread Lorenzo Sutton
Hi all,

I tried searching for this but 'rosegarden first monitor' and similar 
keywords pick up lots of noise.

So essentially I have a second screen attached to my laptop and 
configured (from XFCE Display management utility) to extend to the right 
of the laptop screen.
The two have a different resolution (not sure this is relevant). The 
laptop screen is configured to be the 'primary display'.
When the screen is attached rosegarden (with its main window) will 
always start on the second screen and maximised.

I've noticed that for other applications the behaviour is to start 
wherever the mouse is - keep in mind I start most applications via gmrun 
connected to a shortcut which also shows up where the mouse pointer is).

So... Is there a way to force rosegarden to always start in the main 
screen? Or at least on the one with 'focus'?

Thanks.
Lorenzo.
