Virtuoso, ADE etc. windows open on wrong display

itos
itos over 10 years ago

Hi,


Virtuoso, ADE etc. seems to open all windows on the left side!

I usually have two monitors with the primary monitor on the right and the secondary monitor on the left. Now Cadence opens all windows on my secondary monitor and I always need to drag them manually back to my primary monitor on the right.

Is there an option that Cadence just opens its windows on the same monitor?

Thanks

itos

EDIT: I use X-forwarding and/or xpra on Windows, so I do not access Cadence locally on a Linux box

    Correction : The problem with any Few X-Terminal applications save last state of window position when invoked for the first time.When a user logs off from the Xterm session, he/she might expect to have window positions at the same place that was saved during last session (Xterm control sequence P s = 1 3).

    But yeah, Andrew is right, about separate invocations in most tools, very few tools have windows position state function.
