multiple monitors, OS X
« on: Feb 19th, 2004, 12:36pm »

Just a quick bug report, perhaps it is already known, but:
 
On OS X, the proce55ing windows can get lost on an unplugged screen.
 
I use a video beamer for teaching, and have the P5 windows open on that screen (I have the screen set up to use monitor spanning). If I unplug the exernal monitor, and P5 is still running, the windows don't automatically get moved back to the other monitor, they are 'stuck' in the now non-existent screen. To get them back, I have to plug the monitor back in, and move the windows back again...
 
In other words, when a screen is removed, the app needs to make sure that it's windows positions are set to a reasonable value.

hmm, not sure if it is fixed, i lost my window a couple days ago.
 
because i was in a rush, i unplugged my secondary lacie monitor from my powerbook ( 1.25 GHz, osx 10.2.8, p5 release 68 ). bang, window gone.
 
next time i plugged in again, it was waiting for me (a little scared, but otherwise unharmed).
 
is the problem solved in release 69? should i take the risk?
 
pace,
dek
