Originally created by @SirHesti on GitHub (Jul 8, 2021).

Originally assigned to: @zadjii-msft on GitHub.

Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

Version: 1.9.1523.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

start wt with "initialPosition": "-1920,0", in the json.

Expected Behavior

start wt with position on the left Screen of 4

Actual Behavior

The Window appears ~8 Pixel left from the left side of the Screen

I have 4 Screens attached to my PC

1 2 3 4

3 is the main screen; the wt should appear on screen 2 Top Left.
If you reduce the value from -1920 to -1927, wt will be positioned on screen 1. the position -1927.0 is actually actually there. I have the feeling that the frame of the Windows is included in the calculation, but it is not there: ((

Okay that's a fair complaint. Kinda shocked that no one else has noticed this yet. Thanks!

I'm not sure this is the same issue but with initialPosition = "0,0" the terminal window opens like this
