Hi,

currently it's possible to add a panel to a certain display (number), this works fine if I have both displays running, but in the case where I have only one display running (it's a laptop so this happens on a regular basis) the panels from the other display try to appear on the single running display.
This is bad for me, because I'm running two separate X screens and thus I have two identical panels with a system tray on each.
And this causes problems when I'm running it with only one display, because both panels appear on this single screen and you can't have two system trays, so I end up with the second panel but without a system tray (and a message that says so).

So it would be nice if there would be an option that says "display this panel only on the given display number or not at all" :-)





Geralt.
