Comment 3 zhoujunqin 2018-02-07 08:16:55 UTC 
I can also reproduce this issue with "remote-viewer" without -k option.

Package version: virt-viewer-5.0-10.el7.x86_64

Steps:

1. Run "remote-viewer" in terminal.
2. Check the position of the recent dialog window.

Actual result:
The recent dialog window pops at top-left corner of the main window.
Comment 4 Victor Toso 2018-05-30 12:50:03 UTC 
I don't mind much where it pops up but AFAIK, it can't be enforced over Desktop Environment settings/preferences. Still, patch sent:

Comment 9 Victor Toso 2018-09-06 11:06:35 UTC 
Solution is already upstream. We should include this on 7.7 release.
Moving.
Comment 11 zhoujunqin 2019-04-29 09:59:21 UTC 
I can reproduce this bug with package:
virt-viewer-5.0-11.el7.x86_64

Then try to verify this bug with new build:
virt-viewer-5.0-13.el7.x86_64

1. Run "remote-viewer" in terminal.
$ remote-viewer
2. Check the position of the recent dialog window.

Result: remote-viewer dialog pops up at the center of the main window, so I move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
