Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
   I have a secondary monitor left of the main monitor.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
	 panels are on the (right) main monitor , icons are on the left monitor
	 run this script :
#!/bin/bash
# $0 moves Icons to the other screen

wmctrl -r ${WINDOW_SHORT} -b remove,maximize_vert,maximize_horz
wmctrl -r ${WINDOW_SHORT} -e 400,1440,30,1024,770
wmctrl -r ${WINDOW_SHORT} -b add,maximize_vert,maximize_horz
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   Icons are on the (right) main panel
   however ; script must be run manually and not automatically
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   have the Icons automatically in the correct place

I'll ping the upstream devs to see what they think about this. I have also made the above observation, and found it obscure from time to time, but never really bothered.

Let's see what upstream thinks about it.
