Description srinivas_rc 2007-05-11 00:49:00 UTC
Hi,

I am using 6.0 M9. Today in office I tried dual monitor with my mac and net beans. My Netbeans was on 
secondary monitor with my desktop on my laptop screen. Two issues.

1. With Menu still on Primary monitor, using netbeans on second screen was not fun at all. Some way to 
enable menu on the IDE itself rather than using Mac Menu
2. When I right clicked on IDE, the right click menu was on primary Screen. I tried to replicate on 
another java swing program but could not find one. All SwingX examples had no right click support.

I saw similar problems on other OS and it looks like general Swing/JDK issue. We should create small test application
with right click menu to confirm if it's in Swing.
