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

[Stellios & Sally]

I have had a similar problem with follow up windows (eg. currency/commodity price conversions, warning messages) appearing on my secondary monitor. This always seems to happen after leaving my PC unused with GnuCash open for a while and the displays go into power-saving mode. All I do is shut GnuCash and then reload it. Thereafter, everything is fine.

Hi all,

I'm not sure if anyone has run into this issue before; but I'd like to know if there's a fix for this.  The issue is that I have a Windows system with dual displays/monitors.  I'll have GnuCash open on my primary display; and I'll be on the Scheduled Transactions tab there with my list of scheduled transactions.  If I go and select one of those to edit it (or to create a new one), the Edit Scheduled Transaction window will open up.  But instead of opening up on the primary display where I'm working with GnuCash, it opens up on my secondary display instead (which often times I have turned off).

I've already tried searching thru Bugzilla to see if there's been any report of something like this; but I didn't find anything. (Although it's possible I didn't have the right combination of search terms.) Anyway, that's why I'm asking here.  Has anyone heard of this kind of issue before?  If so, is there an existing Bugzilla report that documents the problem?  Or, better yet, is there any way to fix or work around the issue -- possibly via some configuration setting?  (FYI: I know I could just keep the second monitor powered on all the time; but I'd rather not have to do that *just* for GnuCash.)

Tom
