Description David Tonhofer

Created attachment 237071 [details]
Screenshot displaying popup occuying two monitors

In:

Version: Kepler Service Release 1
Build id: 20130919-0819

On:

Fedora 18 KDE
JDK 1.7.0_45

...I see the content assist window widen over my two monitors. 

The secondary monitor is smaller and to the left, so part of the popup window is also hidden beneath the bottom.

Attachement shows screenshot with left/right monitors and an open popup (created using the KDE screenshot facility set to "screenshot in 5s"; just hitting "print screen" makes the popup disappear)

This didn't happen before with the same installation, i.e. the popup window stayed on the same screen. I will try to run on single monitor to see whether Eclipse "resets" this behaviour for good. It might have something to do with the upgrade to JDK 1.7.0_45.

See old, old bug #135381 about something similar.

I can't reproduce this issue on Fedora 28, GTK3.22, and SWT from master as of today.
