[xmonad] Re: Issue 414 in xmonad: Wrong floating window sizes on multimon setup

Comment #4 on issue 414 by liskni.si: Wrong floating window sizes on multimon setup http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=414 I think the problem is that xmonad internally represents window dimensions as fractions of screen size, and these are computed from the initial window position and size. So, if an application creates a new window at (0,0) and then asks the window manager to position it, xmonad computes the size as a fraction relative to the screen containing (0,0) and then places the window on whatever screen is currently active. If the size of this screen is different, so is the size of the placed window.
