I think so. If it works correctly is a different question. > If a second monitor is attached via HDMI, it can be configured.

The situation for me is different: the panel moves to the leftmost display, no matter if it is the primary or secondary display. The desktop icons are on the same display where the panel is. > If the HDMI display is unplugged after shutdown, and the system is booted > again, apps which used to be on the main display silently disappear.

If I deactivate the secondary display, then everything gets moved immediately to the primary display. Then I reactivate the secondary display and things get strange, means: the configuration switches to "mirrored screens" even though the respective checkmark stays unchecked. But then I'm testing this with Virtualbox with dual screen setup, which is probably presenting itself slightly different than real display hardware (for example, after reactivating the secondary screen, it has a different resolution than before deactivation), so the behaviour might differ because of that. > Is there a fix for that behavior? It seems to work for me, so I'd suggest reporting it at bugzilla.xfce.org BTW: I'm not sure if anyone but me is reading this list, so maybe asking on factory@ would be useful to get more feedback ;-) -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+unsubscr...@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-xfce+ow...@opensuse.org
