Public bug reported:

I have a setup of a laptop with two screens, one in landscape mode, one
in portrait mode. When I connect the two screens, the gnome-panel goes
to one of them (in the few days I've been running Trusty it seems more
or less random to which screen the panel goes).

I don't care much where the panel goes, but sometimes the panel is in
the landscape screen and takes only half the screen, or it is in the
portrait screen and takes more than the physical width of the screen (so
some icons are unreachable). When this happens, if I open gnome-control-
center -> display, it 'thinks' that the panel is on the other screen
(where that panel length would be correct). If I move the panel on
gnome-control-center to the 'correct' screen, the panel gets the right
length. If I move it back to the other screen, the panel stays in the
same panel but goes back to the wrong 'length'.

In short, moving the gnome-panel representation on gnome-control-center
screen diagram makes gnome-panel adapt to the length of the screen you
move it to, but the actual panel does not move from the screen where it
is.

Let me know if you need any other info, thanks!
