Public bug reported: To reproduce:
- Connected to 1920x1080 monitor HDMI (LG 22MC57HQ-P) - Dragged windows to monitor display - Disconnected HDMI from laptop after resuming locked session Program windows that were on the monitor display stayed off the screen after disconnecting, could not be dragged back even with GNOME dock -> "All Windows" displaying the preview. Had to reconnect to the monitor and manually drag them back to the laptop screen. It sounds like others have had this issue: https://askubuntu.com/questions/665709/how-to-recover-offscreen-window-after-disconnecting-second-monitor https://superuser.com/questions/382165/connect-and-disconnect-a-monitor-in-ubuntu/1215472#1215472 Expected: disconnect from external monitor detected by windowing system, always moves all windows to the active screen automatically.
