Since I am having 2 Screens the center is little bit
akward. Escpecially it is not checked, if there are 2
screens and where to center - Especially for the
start-up-screen.
the splash screen from eclipse on screen1 centered
(properly), the progess bar on screen2 centered (properly),
the total window after the initial state is little bit
weired positioned, i.e. (width of both screen)/2, (maximum
height of screen 1, ignoring the windows-insents [=toolbar]). But the height-position could vary, don't know
on what it depends, cause it could be as well the
(max(screen1.height, screen2.height)/2.
Please keep in mind, that the screen-size from my 2 monitors
differ. Therfore the whole center-process is not very good.
I mean it would make sense IFFF I have 3 monitors all the
same size, otherwise the center should be done regarding one
particular screen. Most likely the default one.
The most preferable way would be to restore the position
after closing!
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The progress bar is of no issue right now because if you
take a look at the latest development version we use the
Eclipse 3.2 RCP runtime which has the progress bar
integrated into the splash screen.
Now I understand the rest of the problem that the main
window gets positioned in the center of the display area. I
created a fix for this but which I'm not able to test since
right now I'm on a single monitor setup. However, if you
could get the latest development build
(https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=35271&package_id=163932&release_id=412947
- this is newer than the other one I was referring to in the
bookmark manager related post)? Here the window should be
displayed on the first monitor on startup and window size
and position should be remember across sessions.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
1) The splash-screen with the progress-bar now displays on
the Default-Screen1, while when I have started the
appliction from Screen2, the Window will finally open on
Screen2!
So, perhaps the splash-screen could be as well on the Screen
from where I've launched it.
But I see this as a minor problem.
2) At the very first start, there is the question which type
of Layout one should choose. And THAT frame remains still in
the center of the two screens. So, it would be fine to
have it as well in the middle of ONE screen - Perhaps the
one from which the app is launched.
Since both are minor issues I would say, the bug is done
with 90%. So, feel free to close it - if you like.

Could you please detail more this bug report. Does
JCommander get centered improperly at the initial startup?

Seems like it is fixed now;)
Two minor problems I see still:
1) The splash-screen with the progress-bar now displays on
the Default-Screen1, while when I have started the
appliction from Screen2, the Window will finally open on
Screen2!
So, perhaps the splash-screen could be as well on the Screen
from where I've launched it.
But I see this as a minor problem.
2) At the very first start, there is the question which type

Great! Regarding the minor problems:
1) This is an issue of the Eclipse runtime so you might want
to report this on the Eclipse Bugzilla:
http://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/
The correct behavior would indeed be for the splash screen
to show up on the monitor on which the main window will be
displayed.
2) I provided a fix for this by explicitly stating in the
code that the layout profile chooser dialog be explicitly
centered on the primary monitor on the first startup. Please
check this in the latest development build so that I can
close the bug:

2) is working, therefore I close it
Thx for the quick-fix.
