What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Set an external monitor to be the main screen (owns dock and menu bar)
- Set up new iTerm-windows to appear on Screen 2 (Preferences -> Profiles -> Window - > Screen = Screen 2).
- Open a new iTerm-Window.
- Disconnect the external monitor.
- Wait for the system to settle down.
- Reconnect the external window.
What is the expected output?
The window is expected to always stay on screen 2 (the Macbook's display).
** What do you see instead?**
Initially the window appears as expected on screen 2 (Macbook).
Upon reconnecting the external monitor, the iTerm's window moves to the main screen (external monitor) and stays there instead.
Please provide any additional information below.
My setup: MacBook Pro 15" Retina (late 2013) with external monitor.
The external monitor is set to be the main-screen if connected (owns the dock and the main menubar).
The iTerm-Profile is set to appear on Screen 2 (the Macbook's display).
