Desktop Grid/External Monitor issues.
SUMMARY
***
When displaying a desktop grid, the wallpaper on some of the virtual desktops
on the primary screen is displayed also on the corresponding virtual desktop on
the external monitor, obscuring any application windows displayed on the
external monitor.
Also, when dragging a window from one virtual desktop to another, both on the
primary screen, the wallpaper on the destination virtual desktop spills onto
the virtual desktop below, while the window is being dragged.
As far as I can recall, this issue has arisen only since the 22.04 / 5.26
upgrade.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up 4 virtual desktops and an external monitor
2. Set up Desktop Grid as the action for a Screen Edge
3. Activate the Desktop Grid, using a Screen Edge
4. Drag window from Row 1, Desktop 1 to Row 1, Desktop 2, on the primary
screen.
OBSERVED RESULT
(1) The wallpaper on some of the virtual desktops on the primary screen is
displayed also on the corresponding virtual desktop on the external monitor.
This obscures any application windows displayed on the external monitor. (See
attached photograph.)
(2) When dragging a window from one virtual desktop to another, both on the
primary screen, the wallpaper on the destination virtual desktop spills onto
the virtual desktop below. (See Row 1, Desktop 2 in the attached photograph.)
EXPECTED RESULT
(1) The wallpaper on the virtual desktops on the primary screen should not be
displayed on the external monitor.
(2) The wallpaper on Row 1, Desktop 2 should not spill into Row 2, Desktop 2.
