Description Misha Shnurapet 2011-07-04 02:23:51 UTC
Inspired by these:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-shell-list/2011-June/msg00069.html
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2011-July/401206.html

When running applications, they always appear somewhere in the corner of the screen. It is kind of an issue on a large display. I drag the apps to the center each time launched and wish there was an option for centered placement. My proposal is to have such a setting. May be a hidden one, like many, accessible via dconf-editor.
