Description Stanislav Aubrecht 2006-06-26 08:17:27 UTC
The second-monitor window locations are not saved when I quit, so I have to 
rearrange them each time I restart NetBeans. This was not a big deal with MDI,
but it is with SDI, since I 
typically have to move at least five different windows every time I reopen
NetBeans. The windows that lose 
their location are the ones that are placed in the second monitor when I quit
NetBeans.

This is not a major bug, but it is a problem for anyone trying to make best use
of the screen real estate 
using two monitors. It hurst productivity for those of us who can't leave
netBeans running all the time.
