Description Koos Gadellaa CLA 2011-03-07 11:53:51 EST
When having eclipse spread across two monitors:

The code panel (or whatever the big main frame is which has tabs for eacy opened file) has a >>(x) (where x is the number of other files which are opened but are not in the tab-bar), e.g. >>12

When pressing the '>>' button to display all opened files, a dropdown is displayed with all opened files. However, this does not display directly below the '>>', as expected (probably some workaround for pressing >> when your eclipse window is too small)

However, when having eclipse spread across two monitors, pressing the '>>' will display the open files list on the *other* monitor (instead of directly below the '>>')
