OK.  But I have noticed the same behaviour with several other
applications, among them Emacs, where the problem was fixed in the
application, not in the graphical toolkit.  It was about requesting the
coordinates of the top left corner of the visible canvas instead of the
physical screen before opening a window (sorry for my bad terminology).
 There is no such distinction in the toolkit tlmgr uses?

Best regards,
