I am using a tower computer with two monitors. The left monitor is NOT my primary monitor but the right monitor is my primary monitor.
For some reason even though I have added my right monitor to be the primary monitor/display, the files/folders all appear on the left monitor. This is how I have setted it up:
This is on any linux distro, not limited to endeavourOS.
Is there something I have to do to get the files/folders to appear on the right monitor? I mean I could technically drag the files/folders to the right monitor and it would work but any future files/folders I create will go on to the left monitor so that is why I ask this?
This is a very old xfce bug, and I don’t know if it was fixed in recent xfce versions.
I think the best place to talk and ask about it is the xfce bug tracker and forum. Have you checked them?
Set on Desktop Settings / Icons x Show icons on primary display (if checked all new icons will be on your right/primary desktop)
Panel should be unlocked then moved to primary display and lock again
So all icons created on right/Primary display will remain there. (old ones can be dragged from left to right.)
I put into autostart the above monitor.sh Can be retrieved from here
(Notifications Settings also can be set to appear on primary display)
Most of the problems I understood are solved. Additional hand-out in this theme
