Applications in a dual monitor situation

[George R Goffe]

Daniel,

Thanks for your response on this problem but your suggestion didn't work.

I'm in screen 2 and type in "xv". The gui appears in screen #1. Input focus is there too. Changing input focus did not affect where the gui appeared, in #1 but the input focus behavior changed.

Something broken or am I misunderstanding something?

Regards,

George...

Hi,

in System Settings -> Window Behavior -> Window Behavior enable "Active screen 
follows mouse".  Not sure if this is *exactly* what you are looking for, but 
should work the way you describe, you just need to have mouse cursor on the 
same screen.

Cheers,
Daniel
