Hello, the Options dialog does not open at last position on dual screen. The reason is a wrong implementation in the getUserLocation() method. The Utilities.getUsableScreenBounds() does not return the complete rectangle of the dual screen. This is annoying when you work on a dual screen when you have your Netbeans Platform Application on one screen and you would like to have your Options dialog on the other screen. After closing the Options dialog it does not open at the last close position. This could be fixed by returning the complete dual screen bounds via Utilities.getUsableScreenBounds() or by offering a position parameter when opening via OptionsDisplayer.open() methods.

now the options window always opens in the last position if the display can accommodate the whole window. If not then it defaults to the center of the ide.
