--- Comment #6 from Matthias Clasen  ---
As announced a while ago, we are migrating to gitlab, and bugs that haven't
seen activity in the last year or so will be not be migrated, but closed out in
bugzilla.

If this bug is still relevant to you, you can open a new issue describing the
symptoms and how to reproduce it with gtk 3.22.x or master in gitlab:

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are moving bugs to NEEDINFO if
they haven't seen activity in more than a year. If this issue is still
important to you and still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please reopen it
and we will migrate it to gitlab.

--- Comment #2 from Jonas Ådahl jad...@gmail.com ---
The gtk_window_move() function which I assume tries to put the window on the
global position (x, y) will not be implementable on Wayland as clients cannot
position them self globally. A client can fullscreen to a specified output, but
would it then unfullscreen, the compositor may choose whatever position it
wants which usually would be where it happened to be before fullscreening.

Whats the usual reasons for needing to do gtk_window_move() (including to
certain outputs), and are there maybe other ways we can expose such
functionality?

(In reply to Jonas Ådahl from comment #2)

 Whats the usual reasons for needing to do gtk_window_move() (including to
 certain outputs), and are there maybe other ways we can expose such
 functionality?

Use cases that could be relevant:

- A special purpose application that needs to control on which outputs its
windows go (think trading desk, 3 monitors...). Sounds like 'special
compositor' to me

- Click on a link in application A to open a document in another application -
may want to keep the new window on the same monitor ?

- Implement a 'open window on other monitor' function inside an app (I think
we're just debating adding 'move to other monitor' in the shell window menu
elsewhere).

Sounds a bit specialized yes, but I wonder if some kind of remember my
position and restore my position protocol could kind of solve that. It has
been discussed before, but no one has come up with a good solution to how to do
it so far AFIAK.

 
 - Click on a link in application A to open a document in another application
 - may want to keep the new window on the same monitor ?

There has been ideas floating around about a startup notification / controlled
positioning kind of protocol that could solve this.

 
 - Implement a 'open window on other monitor' function inside an app (I think
 we're just debating adding 'move to other monitor' in the shell window menu
 elsewhere).

What would the point of opening the window on some other monitor being?

Created attachment 300248
  -- https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=300248action=edit
first attempt at a patch

This shows the problem a bit more clearly, seems to be at least useable here
even if the windows never end up on the correct monitors.
