Hi All i've attempted to send this a few times over the last few days but
it hasn't got through for some reason so ill try one last time.

Hi,
Here is the list that i can think of that i haven't got to making bug
reports partly because i was thinking of looking at them sometime however i
doubt that will be soon.
I'll Also prefix this list by saying i am impressed with how far e17 has
come in the 6 - 9 months i have been using it. I've enjoyed its flexibility
which is something i missed since Gnome and KDE both dropped compiz fusion.
How hard can it be to provide a 3x3 Grid of workspaces. Enlightenment does
this well and looks good at the same time so i think i will be sticking
with it for a while. And maybe oneday ill have time to contribute something
to it but until then thanks to all the people that do.

* Various Multi Screen Issues
Currently i am using 2 Nvidia Graphics cards with the Proprietary Driver
and 3 Monitors (1 off the Primary card 2 off the secondary) displayed with
Xinerama which means no Xrandr. Last time i tried NVIDIA's twin
view equivalent the 2 screens on my secondary graphics card were stuck as
the same desktop which isn't suitable for me because i frequently swap
workspaces by individual screen. I almost never swap workspaces on all
screens at the same time. I have also used multiple x servers in the past
but then you cannot move apps across screens. But anyway heres the list of
issues that I care enough about that I would fix if i had unlimited time.

* Currently e17 picks up the first monitor on my secondary card as the
primary monitor (Shows Splash screen here etc.) instead of the Monitor on
the Primary Card.

* It is not possible to add a shelf to the monitor on my primary card at
all.

* Shelves in general Require multi screen support a good place to start
would be adding the screen as part of the identifier ie "Shelf bottom
Screen 1" If multiple screens are present. Secondly when you pick the
shelves position it would be nice to have a drop down to specify the screen
it should go on.

* Currently my shelves Don't redraw correctly and i am left with artifacts.

*Applications are launched on the Screen the cursor is on not the screen
they were launched from when quickly moving the cursor after launching,
however, If you swap between workspaces after launching there is no issue.

* Add Or remove a shelf from its menu with the shelf settings open and the
settings are not updated its not a big issue because attempting to delete
it again or go to its settings just does nothing.

* When the Clock Date pop up is open and you swap to a workspace with a
full screen application the Popup comes up over the Application. This
probably should be handled in the same way as the enlightenment menu in
that you cannot leave the workspace while it is up.

* I have a key binding set to move windows between workspaces but if i have
a window in workspace 1 and attempt to move it through workspace 2 into
workspace 3 and there is a full screen application in workspace 2 the end
result is the full screen window ends up in workspace 3 and the window i
was attempting to move ends up in workspace 2.

Cheers For the fantastic work all.

Simon
