Re: [ jEdit-devel ] How to troubleshoot jEdit window size?

[Eric B. <el...@gm...>]

I had issues with jEdit on a laptop + second monitor setup as well. I
finally realized that it was the L&F that was causing the issue - I can't
remember the exact one, but it was one of the ones in the L&F plugin. I
tried various L&Fs, not all of them had the issue.

Is it a base install of jEdit? If not, and you're using the L&F plugin I'd
try changing it to nimbus or disable the plugin to see if that helps.
