** Description changed: + WORKAROUND: + + Edit ~/.config/monitors.xml, find the monitor you want the launcher to display on and change: + <primary>no</primary> + to: + <primary>yes</primary> + Now log out and log in again. + + + ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: + Binary package hint: unity In my particular configuration I have an external monitor hooked up to my laptop on the left of the laptop display. The unity bar is ending up on the laptop display though making it in the middle of the two monitors. This makes it quite difficult to activate the bar with a full screen application open on the laptop (hitting the upper left pixel of that monitor without going over). I think it would make more sense to make it configurable which monitor the bar ends up on, or at least look at the orientation of the monitors when determining where to put the bar.
