Bug Description
Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite
X11 2.7.7
Inkscape 0.48
MacBook Pro 8,2 (15-inch, Early 2011)
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
External monitor: Apple Cinema HD 23-inch (1920 x 1200)
Windows generated by the app (via opening a file, opening an open/save dialog, opening the path->trace dialog, etc) are all invisible/
Problem magically goes away when I close the laptop lid OR disconnect the external monitor. Comes back if I go back to a dual monitor setup.
If I open the app manually, the main window will appear and open/save dialogs work, but other dialogs still appear off-screen. Same as above - this problem is remedied by disabling one of the monitors (closing laptop or disconnecting the external display).
Multi-monitor support of XQuartz on OS X >= 10.9 is known to be partially broken (not specific to Inkscape).
