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 better than not working at all, but "Use output device with pointer" as the users attention is usually there. The fix for this problem makes changes to unityshell.xml.in and place.xml.in, so changes to lp:unity and lp:compiz are involved here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874146 Title: New windows open on the wrong monitor, Place Plugin settings silently ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/874146/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
