Description Marcel Dischinger 2006-11-30 15:42:18 UTC 
Version:           1.4-svn (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.3.6 (Debian 1:3.3.6-13) 
OS:                Linux

When using a setup with multiple displays Amarok already allows to choose on which display the OSD should appear. This is already great.
However, I would like to see an option that will display the OSD on the display the mouse pointer is currently in (thus this likely is the display I am currently looking at). KDE is already doing this when opening applications, the window appears on the screen my mouse pointer is currently at.
This would be a cool and neat improvement for multi-display setups.

I like the idea.

Anyone want's to give a try ?

That's a nice idea. I'd modify it a bit: 

Show the OSD on the screen that has the current focus window.
