[TSVN] Autocompletion list in commit dialog, dual monitors

From: Nick Dyer <nick_at_albacore.co.uk>

When I do a commit using TortoiseSVN, a window pops up entitled "Enter
Log Message". There are little auto-completion windows that pop-up which
I begin typing a filename that is present in the changed files list.

I have two monitors using XP built-in dual monitor support. The
secondary monitor is to the left of the primary one. I've noticed that
since 1.2.0, the pop-up windows that I've described insist on being on
the primary monitor, even if the window they are meant to be appearing
on top of is on the secondary (left hand) monitor. It's as though
someone's hardcoded the minimum x offset of the ac windows to 0.

I've noticed bugs like this before where someone has tried to have a
hidden window by shoving it way off on the left hand side of the screen
and it appears on my second monitor. I can actually have windows with
negative offsets.

It's difficult to do a screen grab but I can digital camera it if
absolutely necessary.

I had a bit of a look through the source code on your web access to SVN
but couldn't find the change that caused this - sorry. I guess it
happened somewhere in the update of Scintilla to 1.63 where
AutoCompleteStart now calls LocationFromPosition(currentPos) in
src/Utils/scintilla/src/Editor.cxx and ScintillaBase.cxx

cheers for the great software

Nick
