Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: metacity
I have the gnome-panel in mode 'not expand', i.e. it does not fill the whole
width of the screen.
I move a window to the top edge of the screen such that the title bar is
exactly touching the screen edge.
I obscure part of the window with a 2nd window.
I move the mouse into the title bar of the first window and in fact against the
screen edge.
I click the mouse.
expected behaviour: the window should raise.
seen behaviour: the mouse pointer seems to be somehow outside the screen
already, which is why the window is not raised.
The same problem exists on the other screen edges where I am not able to
click the window when the window is at the screen edge and the mouse
touches the screen edge.
(Yes, I know there are gazillions of other ways to raise a window, but
moving the mouse to the extreme position at the screen edge and clicking
reliefs me from properly targeting, which is why it is very convenient.)
