controlling where the app opens on screen

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I was hoping for a way to do this from the command line.
Perhaps I want to run the same application twice at the same time
so two windows are open and showing different things. Like two differnent power points.

Also I am running GNOME.
Is there no way to do this?

In KDE you can control positions where windows opens. In window menu (accessible by pressing Alt+F3 or other combination depending on your configuration) click "Advanced -> Special Window Settings" or "Advanced -> Special Application Settings". There you can set almost everything for given window or application including its exact position on the screen when it opens.
