[Bug 682046] Re: OpenLP opens control interface behind presentation window on secondary monitor

 

I encounter the same "bug" in Ubuntu 10.10 using laptop. I have nVidia
graphic card with 260.19.06 driver for nVidia.

Maybe the problem is, that I make my external display to be the primary
(in nvidia-settings). At this settings Openlp main window starts at the
secondary screen (the laptop screen) also with presentation screen.

However, when I make my first display to be primary (the laptop display)
then the application works as expected.

Bug description:
Note: I'm running Ubuntu 10.10, using the open-source "radeon" drivers.

When I load up OpenLP, both the control interface and the presentation window are opened on the secondary monitor. The presentation window obscures the control interface, and has to be closed by pressing 'esc'.

This isn't a critical bug, but it is very frustrating -- particularly if I'm not around to help the poor person who's "doing the words" for the service! The ideal fix for this would be to nominate screens for presentation and control, rather than specifying offsets and dimensions for the presentation area; I understand, though, that given the cross-platform nature of OpenLP, this may be difficult!
