dewd at marieta:~$ env | grep DISPLAY
DISPLAY=:0.1
dewd at marieta:~$ xprop  -root | grep WORKAREA | grep -v NET_SUPPORTED
_NET_WORKAREA(CARDINAL) = 0, 31, 1280, 769, 0, 31, 1280, 769, 0, 31, 1280,
769, 0, 31, 1280, 769
dewd at marieta:~$ xprop  -root | grep STRUT | grep -v NET_SUPPORTED
dewd at marieta:~$ xprop  -root | grep STRUT | grep -v NET_SUPPORTED
dewd at marieta:~$

* Note that the third test does not report anything on the second monitor.

dewd at marieta:~$ env | grep DISPLAY
DISPLAY=:0.0
dewd at marieta:~$ xprop  -root | grep WORKAREA | grep -v NET_SUPPORTED
_NET_WORKAREA(CARDINAL) = 0, 31, 1280, 769, 0, 31, 1280, 769, 0, 31, 1280,
769, 0, 31, 1280, 769
dewd at marieta:~$ xprop  -root | grep STRUT | grep -v NET_SUPPORTED
_NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL(CARDINAL) = 0, 0, 31, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1280, 0, 0
dewd at marieta:~$


BTW, I'm not sure if SciTE is the problem, because I tried to reproduce it
today and Thunar was the one which got its titlebar hidden. My current
version of Thunar sometimes seems to not save the maximized state between
session restarts, BTW.  I mostly use maximized windows all the time, so some
of the problems may have some correlation with this. :-)

Thanks.

Cheers,
Joao
