#6833 closed defect

Detached window opens outside of desktop — at Version 2

Description (last modified by stoecker)

On my Win7/32 laptop, JOSM opens on laptopscreen. With only 900px height I sometimes detach / unpin windows from the sidebar and move them on an external monitor. The (last) position of this window is stored somewhere, so when using the laptop without external monitor the window opens outside the visible area, and there is no way to get it back.

I already described this bug in http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/josm-dev/2010-October/004947.html and I got a workaround in the forum: http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=114457#p114457

How to reproduce:

  1. On a 2 monitor system detach / unpin e.g. "Properties" and move the window to the other screen.
  2. Attach / pin the window back to JOSM by closing the properties-window
  3. Shut down JOSM
  4. Disable the 2nd monitor
  5. Start JOSM and redo step 1.

ToogleDialog does not use WindowGeometry, but its own code --> replace with WindowGeometry usage to fix this.
