Your opinion disagres with the xfce4-settings documentation: http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-settings/display
See section "Primary display": "Check this option to provide a hint to panels, docks and the desktop that the selected display is the primary display." If you want panels on every monitor you could choose not to have a primary display selected. Your proposed behavior anyway is not user friendly. After configuring your primary monitor in xfce4-settings you have to enter the panel settings again and configure the monitor where you want the panel. If this is true for each software (panel, docks, icons) you have a lot of configuration to do when you plug in a larger monitor (but only on your right, if the monitor is on the left you're a lucky guy). I guess this is linked to a long running xfce bug that never made it to xfce4-panel. https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8328 ** Bug watch added: Xfce Bugzilla #8328 https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8328 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1596751 Title: xfce-panel does not honor "primary display" setting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-panel/+bug/1596751/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
