Upfront Information

  • Fvwm3 version: fvwm3 1.0.7 (released)

  • Distro: Arch Linux

  • Platform: Linux unknown

Expected Behaviour

When starting fvwm3 the IconMan should be on the right side of the primary monitor.

Actual Behaviour

The IconMan was on the right side of the whole X screen on my second monitor. It seems like fvwm knows that it should be on my left monitor because it won't maximize windows over where it should be. It's trivial to move it as shown in the video, it is just a little bit annoying.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Connect two monitors
  2. Set left monitor as primary via randr
  3. Start fvwm3 with the default configuration
  4. Observe the IconMan being in the wrong place

Extra info

This doesn't happen on version 1.0.6a
