Description of problem: I do have a dual head set up. Right monitor being my primary monitor. Left being my secondary monitor. I'm running "separate X Servers" for each of them. So the right one is :0.0 the left one is :0.1. Whenever I try to create an application launcher on the left monitor, the launcher is created on the right monitor. Create Folder and Create Document work as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): metacity-2.28.0-20.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a dual head set up with different X Servers. 2. On Display :0.1 right click and select "Create Launcher ..." 3. Enter information requested. Actual results: Launcher appears on Display :0.0 Expected results: Launcher is created on Display :0.1 Additional info: I'm not sure if this is related to this, but this set up seems to have its issues. If I e.g. start virt-manager on display :0.1 a dialog pops up on :0.0 asking for the root password. Not really a problem but just an annoyance.
Forgot to say this worked fine with RHEL 5.6.

This was mistakenly assigned to metacity - it doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the window manager.
