New Finder window always on the wrong display

In my setup, the largest external display is Primary, and that's where I do most of my work. The other two external monitors are smaller, and far enough away that I can't use them for viewing text. However, when I open a new Finder window (e.g. cmd-N), it often opens on one of the non-Primary displays, which means I need to drag it to the Primary.

What is the algorithm used by the Finder to decide where new windows are placed? I would like to specify that all new Finder windows should open on the Primary display.

These are the Developer Forums, where developers of apps for Apple's platforms ask each other for hints and tips on coding.

Your question is more of a product support one, so I'd suggest you ask it over at the Apple Support Forums. Thanks.
