Virtuoso, ADE etc. windows open on wrong display

itos

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

  • It's xpra (alternatively just the Cygwin X server).

    However, it seems that Cadence requests these weird numbers. It's written directly in the window messages (see http://xpra.org/trac/ticket/811).

    Since the placement is really arbitrary (neither the last position, nor whatever I put into the config files) it really seems to me Cadence uses a random generator to make the behavior as non-deterministic as possible :-(
