eog doesn't always open on the XScreen is requested

[Pablo Piaggio]

Binary package hint: eog

I have two monitors running 2 different X Screens (0 and 1).

Example:

If I am on xscreen 0, and double click an image -> eog opens on xscreen0. While that windows remains open, I go to xscreen1 and try to open another pic in there, it won't open on xscreen1 but on xscreen0 (on a new window).

My conclusion is that eog only opens on the correct xscreen only if there is no other pic being viewed at the moment. All additional requests for viewing a pic go to the screen where eog was opened first.

Regards.

Is there any thing I can do?
