No, sorry for not being clear.  When the reconcile window is invis and I just reposition it, When I leave mission control, it is still invisible.  I have to move the windows as a set to my secondary (upper) display, and then it becomes visible, having been repositioned to the upper left corner of the accounts window.

I normally have the accounts window on my primary display.

If I move the accounts window to my secondary display, and then open reconcile, it is visible and positioned at the upper left of the accounts display.

I can only reposition them as a pair in mission control, so what I said about independent repositioning of the reconcile window was wrong.

It might be the alignment of my primary and secondary displays triggering the issue?

I just wanted to mention it, because it can be quite mysterious when the reconcile window doesn't appear, one might not know to go to mission control to get it back onto the visible space.
