[GNC] Issue with Creating/Editing Scheduled Transactions with Multiple Displays?

[Tom Route36]

Hi Liz,

No, the problem doesn't happen when opening GnuCash.  In fact, the way 
GnuCash behaves on opening is just what I'd expect.  GnuCash will open 
on whichever monitor it was on when it was last closed. So if I had it 
open on my secondary monitor (#2) when I last closed it, then when I go 
to reopen it, it will open up again on #2. Similarly, if I last had it 
open and closed it on my primary monitor (#1), then when I reopen it, it 
will open again on #1.  And that's all fine.  That's working just like 
any other app (e.g., Chrome or Firefox or most anything else).

The issue with GnuCash is specifically with editing or creating 
Scheduled Transactions.  The Edit Scheduled Transaction window will 
always open up on the *other* monitor from where GnuCash is open. 
Specifically, if GnuCash is open on #1, then the Edit window opens on 
#2.  Conversely, if GnuCash is open on #2, then the Edit window will 
open on #1.  That's weird!  And wrong!

Has anyone else ever noticed this?  Or reported it (i.e., Bugzilla)?  Is 
there any workaround for it?

Tom
