This bug is in 20.04 lts for me. Using Dell Precision with USB-C and HDMI and Quadro T2000/PCIe/SSE2 / Quadro T2000/PCIe/SSE2 Display cards
Under settings, if I attach the external, the scalling goes out of wack. Laptop screen scalling changes zooms out, while the external screen scale zooms completely in. It's as if the adjustment is managing the wrong screen. Even if I try scalling the external screen, the laptop screen is impacted. Gotten to the point where I cannot use the external screens. You know how it is with coding, really great to have external screens to move stuff too. It's exactly like this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/360970/+attachment/557624/+files/Screenshot-2.png Not sure it's related to nautilus, but you'd probably know better. It's as if the usb-c and hdmi ports are not getting the right signals. Also HDMI and USB-C can cause the OS to hang if I pull it in and out quickly. That area of 20.04 screen management setting is quite buggie for me. Hope you're able to address it soon as I really miss my external monitors. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360970 Title: Multi-monitor - When using two displays with different vertical resolution, icons get lost on the shorter display Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Committed Status in Nautilus: Expired Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: On a Multi-Monitor setup, where the extended desktop is non- rectangular in shape (ie. the displays are of a different resolution, and their top/bottom/left/right edges are not aligned), desktop icons are placed in non-accessible areas when arranged using the menu option 'View-Organise Desktop by Name' from the Desktop.
