Shell set bounds on multiple monitor reset to the screen center [message #665287]

I have 2 monitors side by side, A+B (Win XPP)

when I align my shell to the right edge of monitor A, it always reset to
the center of B. See the following example:

A: 2560x1600
B: 1200x1600

When I set my shell to Rectangle {2360, 1, 200, 200}, the shell is
centered at B.

It works fine if I make the x as 2359.

The above workaround does not work for Window.constrainShellSize() as
the x is auto-determined.

Here is my workaround by overriding getConstrainedShellBounds() but it a
bit ugly:

@Override
protected Rectangle getConstrainedShellBounds(Rectangle preferredSize) {
Rectangle rect = super.getConstrainedShellBounds(preferredSize);
if (rect.x > 1) {
rect.x--;
}
return rect;
}

Am I missing something?
