Description of problem: When opening a new connection with Remmina and the tabbed window is located on a different (secondary) display, a new window opens (instead of opening in the current one). Moving the tabbed window back to the primary display before opening a new connection opens in a new tab as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): remmina-0.9.3-3.fc15.i686 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Remmina 2. Double click a saved connection (will open in a new window on primary display) 3. Double click another saved connection (will open in previous window as a new tab) 4. Move window with two tabs to secondary display (other monitor) 5. Double click a third saved connection. Actual results: At step 5, a new window is opened on the primary display. Expected results: Should open as a new tab on the secondary display. Additional info: Moving the window back to the primary display before opening a new connection will ensure this opens in a new tab.

Apps are supposed to show up on the display they were started. Do you have any application in mind that behaves the way you want it or why do you think it is a bug?

However, when the application is already running and it is specified that further connections should open in a new tab -- I would expect this to be the case. Regardless of which display the application now resides (in this case simply moved to another monitor). An example of this behaviour is a web browser such as Mozilla Firefox. When clicking a hyperlink or opening a file, it will always open in a new tab on a running instance of the application -- regardless of what display it resides on. As far as I'm aware in gnome shell, there is no way to have a launcher on the secondary display, meaning there is no workaround for this except for either leaving Remmina running on the primary display permanently, or moving Reminna to the primary display every time I wish to open a new connection -- then moving it back again.

For me new tabs are only opened when there already is a window on the display, otherwise a new window is opened - at least in Xfce.

So if you have a Firefox window open on your secondary monitor, and you "click on" a link on the primary monitor, it opens a new window on the primary monitor rather than opening a new tab on the secondary monitor?
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
