Who When What Removed Added

Noriko Hosoi 2016-05-12 01:04:55 UTC Doc Text Cause:
The coordinates of Console windows are stored in the user preferences in o=netscaperoot.

Consequence:
If Console is used by the same user on different machines with different monitor setup (e.g. 1 monitor and 2 monitors), the coordinates may become offscreen on one of the machines. And Console window may be hidden after login.

Fix:
Get the screen size and compare the location of the Console window. If the location is outside of the screen, it force to reset it with the initial position (0, 0).

Result:
The Console window is always visible.

Directory Server Console can no longer be located off-screen at startup

Red Hat Directory Server Console window coordinates are stored in user preferences in the `o=netscaperoot` suffix. Previously, if the Directory Console was used by the same user on two different systems with different monitor setups, it was possible for the coordinates to be off screen on one of them, and consequently the Directory Console window could be hidden after logging in. This update adds a check which compares saved window coordinates with the current screen size, and resets the window location if currently outside the screen, which ensures the window is always visible.
