Public bug reported: many windows are opening partially offscreen, some are opening with almost no vertical component (thus needing stretching out), some warp (move) on selecting new items.
-- background my monitor setup is strange, monitor1 is top, monitor2 is below & slightly left this was first noticed with pcmanfm-qt which would 'jump' or 'warp' (star trek warp) to a new location not fully on either monitor & sometimes partially off-screen when I selected a new partition (device in left pane) see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm-qt/+bug/1804329 to aid in that bug report, I started taking screen-captures which caused lximage-qt to load, I maximized the window expecting it to go fullscreen on monitor2, instead of using all of monitor2 it would use full width but only about 1/8th of height of the monitor (ie. very little vertical). i started `ubuntu-bug pcmanfm-qt` for aforementioned pcmanfm-qt warp issue, it opened firefox which opened squashed on top of monitor2 like lximage-qt was... i wanted my hw specs I list in qa-test reporting (on another system so I was going to ssh to it) so opened terminal (ctrl+alt+t) and qterminal opens on monitor1 but with more than half off-screen ** issues - windows are strangely behaving when I maximize on monitor2 (lximage- qt, firefox, qterminal etc. they all go full-width bu tonly use 1/8th of vertical space of the monitor - some windows are opening off-screen, esp. qterminal using ctrl+alt+t - some windows warp on some functions & end up, part displayed on one monitor, some on my other monitor and parts on neither (off-screen); pcmanfm-qt - even adding attachments in firefox can If I use maximize on monitor1 all behavior is as expected. I'm getting strange behavior only on my second monitor for maximize (which is my preferred for this setup with). It's probably appearing off-screen because my monitors aren't aligned perfectly (my strange setup). Even on entering `ubuntu-bug` for this lp.repot, firefox (which was already open & displayed fully on monitor2 (lower) - the firefox window warped or jumped so the top was on monitor1, the bulk of it on monitor2 and part now offscreen. lots of screen images ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.04 Package: openbox 3.6.1-7ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.18.0-11.12-generic 4.18.12 Uname: Linux 4.18.0-11-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu14 Architecture: amd64 CasperVersion: 1.400 CurrentDesktop: LXQt Date: Tue Nov 20 23:48:18 2018 LiveMediaBuild: Lubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" - Alpha amd64 (20181120) SourcePackage: openbox UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: openbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug disco ** Attachment added: "lshw" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1804337/+attachment/5214695/+files/lshw -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1804337 Title: windows are opening partially offscreen - some windows are warping [mv] strangely (pcmanfm-qt), some maximize using ~1/8th veritical To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openbox/+bug/1804337/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
