description |
while this long standing problem has been mitigated with some previous work and patches (eg: #389519) at least keeping the mouse away from the dead area, the desktop behaviour if far from being precise still.
when using a couple of monitors with different vertical resolution, icons can easily get lost on the shortest monitor, to reproduce the bug just put on the shortest monitor enough icons to exceed a single column, click on the desktop with the right mouse button and then "organize desktop by name".
another issue is with compiz corner hotspots bindings, they are never triggered if there's a dead area above or below theme, it depends on where your shortest display is aligned in respect of the tallest (top or bottom margin), to reproduce try for example to bind the "Show Desktop" action on a corner of the shortest display.

while this long standing problem has been mitigated with some previous work and patches (eg: #389519) at least keeping the mouse away from the dead area, the desktop behaviour is far from being precise still.
when using a couple of monitors with different vertical resolution, icons can easily get lost on the shortest monitor, to reproduce the bug just put on the shortest monitor enough icons to exceed a single column, click on the desktop with the right mouse button and then "organize desktop by name".
another issue is with compiz corner hotspots bindings, they are never triggered if there's a dead area above or below them, it depends on where your shortest display is aligned in respect of the tallest (top or bottom margin), to reproduce try for example to bind the "Show Desktop" action on a corner of the shortest display.

[Problem]
When using two displays with different vertical resolution, icons get lost on the shorter display.
[Test Case]
1. Set up two monitors side by side
2. Set left monitor to a smaller vertical resolution than the right monitor
3. for i in $(seq 1 50) ; do touch file-${i} ; done
4. Right click on desktop to bring up context menu, then 'Organize Desktop by Name'
5. Should be: All icons from file-1 to file-50 (or as many fit on the screen) should be visible
Is: Icons for files at the top and/or bottom of the arranged columns are not visible on any display
6. xrandr --output LVDS1 --off
7. Verify icons are arranged properly on the external monitor
8. Set up monitors one over the other
9. Verify icons are displayed in long columns spanning both displays with all icons shown
[Original Report]
while this long standing problem has been mitigated with some previous work and patches (eg: #389519) at least keeping the mouse away from the dead area, the desktop behaviour is far from being precise still.
when using a couple of monitors with different vertical resolution, icons can easily get lost on the shortest monitor, to reproduce the bug just put on the shortest monitor enough icons to exceed a single column, click on the desktop with the right mouse button and then "organize desktop by name".
another issue is with compiz corner hotspots bindings, they are never triggered if there's a dead area above or below them, it depends on where your shortest display is aligned in respect of the tallest (top or bottom margin), to reproduce try for example to bind the "Show Desktop" action on a corner of the shortest display.
