multiples pcmanfm windows wont respect display option

[wolffnx]

A very anoing problem..is a excelent file manager, I love it, but happen this:

I have 3 displays , 2 of them in Nvidia and the other on onboard intel vga
I can start programs without problems in any display,like this

DISPLAY=":0.2" xterm

for example

but when I had one pcmanfm window open in display 0 , and I open a new windows in display 2 , its appear in display 0
I have try the classic way(code above) and the pcmanfm way

--display=":0.2"

but has no effect

Probably because they're not separate processes. Each xterm is a separate process, each pcmanfm window is probably opened from a single process.

Is a shame, Pcmanfm is the only application that have this behaviour
for other hand the port of Spacefm is great , but I dont trust for everyday use , had some bugs that I cant reproduce

I'm just shooting in the dark here, but this single/separate process could be a cause. There might be a way to start a new pcmanfm process, one that's connected to the other display. Just because a new window opens doesn't necessarily mean it's a different process, you can have a single process spawning multiple, seemingly individual, windows.
