Quick example. I've got they synchro view detached on one monitor, the main Eclipse window on another. I hit the sync icon on sync view on monitor 2, the sync dialog shows up on monitor one. This requires a lot of extra mouse work.
This is because of random parenting (i.e. parenting with null) and is not a general issue. Please log a problem report for the dialog you see this in. Moving to Team to handle the specific case.
The new sync code in the branch has a lot of parenting fixes, will verify when we merge the changes into HEAD.
Fixed all that I could find. Open separate bugs for any other problems.
Problem still exists. I've now got the main window on monitor 2, sync view on minotor 1. If you do the pulldown button on sync to get Synchronize... (to get the dialog), the dialog pops up on monitor 2. If you just hit the sync button w/o the dialog, the progress window shows up on monitor 2 as well, - that's just a visual thing - but still another symptom of the same issue I would guess. Synchro dialog not showing up on monitor of event that summoned it.
Actually, the real irritation is commit/override and update from the popup menu of a file(s). I've got the sync view on monitor 1, eclipse main window on monitor 2. Right click on a file (monitor 1) and the dialogs for commit and override&update show up on monitor 2.
