But then on http://developer.gnome.org/doc/GGAD/sec-

"Applications should not save their current window geometries; the
window manager is responsible for that."

Ok, I'm confused.

Status in Linux DC++: Confirmed

Bug description:
I have a dual-monitor setup with my secondary monitor on the left and primary monitor on the right.

On first startup (when LinuxDCPP.xml doesn't exist), LinuxDC++ will open at position X=100 (which is on the secondary monitor) instead of something > 1024 (primary monitor). I then have to drag it over to my primary monitor.

Also, because I immediately maximized my window (and never unmaximized it), the X position is never saved. After months of frustration I realised this only after inspecting the code myself (workaround was to unmaximize, drag over to primary and quit program so that X saved as > 1024).

I see the latest GTK has a gdk_screen_get_primary_monitory() function which could aid with this? But what is the minimum requirements in terms of GTK?

PS: To add to my frustration, my secondary monitor is actually my TV, which isn't always on. I had to switch on the TV so that I could drag the LinuxDC++ window over.
