Hello,

I have a similar question posted on SO ->
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7802366/matplotlib-window-layout-questions

With few extra commands you can get your figures appearing on your second
monitor. However, SetPosition behavior is somewhat unpredictable. When I
pass a large x value it tendsmove the figure to my second monitor. What
would be nice is to mpl to remember the last window position and size --say
for instance for particular plots I always want to view figures in
maximized window and placed on the second monitor.
