Auto-Tag and dual screens [BUG#6284]

Post by Cruiser »

I am using a dual screen set-up on a Windows Xp Pro, PC.
When I open any of the "Auto-Tag" dialogues, they open in the same window as the MM,
so I move them over to the other screen as I open them, for convenience.
- That is OK.
The "Auto-Tag from web" dialogue stays open after I have clicked the Auto-Tag button.
Ready to continue to the next bunch of files.
- That is also OK.
The "Auto-Tag from file name" have no "Auto-Tag" button, and closes when I click the "OK" button.
- That is NOT OK.
I will then have to open it again, move it again, and do the same next time.
This is somewhat irritating.
Either the "Auto-Tag from file name" should stay open, like "Auto-Tag from web", or open in the same place where it was closed, I think.

Is it only mine that act like this, or is this the way it is supposed to be?

Same happens to me, I guess it can't remember being on the other screen. If I move the autotag from filename window to another location on the same screen that MM is on though, it will reopen in the same place I moved it to (just doesn't remember second screen location).

OK, Then at least its not only on my PC that this happens.
Maybe a thing for the wish list?

I added it to the bug tracker since I could reproduce it and it seems like unexpected behavior (i.e. a bug): http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=6284

Sounds great. Then this most likely will work smoother in a later version.
