Launcher properties window for only one that works correctly

This is a screen shot from a application launcher on the top panel of screen :0.1.  The launcher properly launches the application on screen :0.1, so far the only panel/menu item that does so.  The properties window shown here opened on screen :0.0 instead of screen :0.1.  Properties was selected from the right-mouse-button pop-open menu.
Comment 5 L Johnson 2009-05-21 12:56:49 UTC 
An OpenOffice 3.0.1 document launched from a Desktop icon on screen 1 :0.1 will open on the correct screen.

Is anything being looke at about this?
