Public bug reported:
I have a 1366x768 laptop that I connect to an external 1920x1080
monitor.
Windows maximize correctly on the monitor that is up or left. Windows
maximize incorrectly (they half-disappear into the void) on the monitor
that is down or right. It doesn't matter which monitor is set as
primary.
Steps to reproduce: connect a second monitor and select a different
resolution than the first monitor. Set vertical layout (one monitor over
the other) or horizontal layout (side-by-side). Open one window on each
monitor. Click the maximize button and observe the brokenness. Try using
the grid plugin and observe the brokenness (windows on the bottom or
right monitor half-disappear outside the monitor).
Anyone know any fixes/workarounds for this, other than falling back to
classic mode? I am using Ubuntu for work and this is hurting my
productivity.
