> Unfortunately the Java SplashScreen feature is not well maintained. It looks really odd on Linux multi-monitor displays trying to arrange the screen on the middle of the two monitors. I think the intention of this Java feature was to create prompt response to the user on opening a Java application. Well disk and hardware get quicker and Java get leaner on load (with Java 9). This feature could be replaced by using a custom window instead.
> This would improve on two things:
> - Placement of the Splash Screen could be really multi-monitor aware
> - There is a flicker on startup for those who are upgrading from dev/release candidate to final release. The first image says developer version then it updates to release
> I'm trying to work something out. Though there is some chance to have some interference with the platform branding.
