Description Christian Muehlhaeuser 2017-09-09 23:42:22 UTC 
Falkon's download manager insists on opening up with a specific location, which seems to be the top-right corner of the left-most screen. In my setup, my main monitor is on the right with the TV left to it. The TV is usually turned off, so I always have to retrieve the download manager window when it pops up.

It doesn't manually save/restore geometry, so that's most likely issue of your window manager if it moves new windows to powered off screens.
Comment 2 Christian Muehlhaeuser 2018-01-02 03:57:07 UTC 
According to the kwin developers, this has to be a bug in Falkon, since the window gets initialized with a user-specified position.

What's with this call?

```
QzTools::centerWidgetOnScreen(this);
```

Alright, that's it, sorry.
