Multiple monitor issue

Description (last modified by )
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- I have three monitors
- If I move main window of JOSM to any monitor that is not primary, when it opens any dialog (e.g. Add value?, Change value, etc) it opens to primary monitor. Sometimes you don't know that even is opened to other monitor especialy if you have many apps open and you are waiting for very small dialog like it is Change value.
What is the expected result?
- I expect to get new window/dialog in the center of Java OpenStreetMap Editor main window, not at the other monitor.
What happens instead?
- Any dialog is opened to primary monitor even the main app isn't at that monitor.
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

Your screen setup looks ok. JOSM remembers the place where dialogs are shown. Does this always happen again even when you move it back to the right screen and finish it there (I'm not sure if a dialog abort also remembers position).
Try removing stored dialog sizes: Search for geometry in expert preferences and delete the entries. They look like org.openstreetmap.josm.gui.dialogs.LatLonDialog.geometry and have values like x=541,y=270,width=831,height=503.
Please report results.

Acctualy it starts from previous window, but that means every single window I have ever showed/opened I have to search for it at which of screens it is shown?!
Also, I have found in the same way that TurnLanes plugin always is open only in main (first) display, regardless where it was displayed before.

Replying to brackone@…:

Please explain what you mean.
, but that means every single window I have ever showed/opened I have to search for it at which of screens it is shown?!
No. This only affects windows which can be opened and used independent from the main window. Blocking dialogs always open relative to the main. E.g. I use JOSM on the main screen and most of my dialogs open on the second screen not blocking the main window map display.
I'm not sure, but probably there is a expert option to disable the remembering.
Also, I have found in the same way that TurnLanes plugin always is open only in main (first) display, regardless where it was displayed before.
Not all plugins use JOSM functionality correctly in all places. If this is the case a ticket for the relevant plugin must be issued.

Windows positions are remembered. Simply move the window on the correct screen and it will appear again at the same location.
