Here's what I use to keep X11 from opening windows that are bigger
than my screen which is a little different but related to your problem:
defaults write org.x.X11 wm_limit_size -bool true
This might work in your situation.

Hi all,
I have a question about Matlab, X11, and dual monitors. Wwhen I
start up Matlab, it tries to remember where the various windows
(e.g. editor and shell) were last located. If I last used it on the
external monitor, and then try to run it on my laptop without the
external monitor, Matlab places the windows where it thinks they
should go, and that is off-screen and I have no way to drag them
back to the visible desktop. Is there some flag I can set in the
X11 system to prevent windows from being placed in a non-viewable
place? Thanks...
Dave
