I have a pretty simple multi-server phpMyAdmin install.
When I use the Designer on a database on the remote server and save the coords, they get saved to the local (or default) pma table ( pma_designer_coords ).
When I reload the designer view, the saved coords are not reflected, the tables are not laid out as I saved them.
If I copy the local pma_designer_coords contents to the pma table on the remote server from the local server, the layouts are shown.
My assumption is that storing pma data for the remote server in the local pma store is a bug since there is no server column to uniquely identify the table named in pma_designer_coords and having a table of the same name on both servers would cause coords to keep getting traded back and forth.
I would guess pmd_save_pos.php is writing in the wrong place?

Little more detail:
my 'local' server is $cfg['Servers'][1] and phpMyAdmin is installed on that server,
'remote' server is $cfg['Servers'][2]
I've checked my 'controluser' permissions and can write to the remote server's pma tables with the config'd controluser nad controlpass (using both $cfg['Servers'][1] and $cfg['Servers'][2] settings)
