Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2010-09-02 18:35:46 UTC

Version:           SVN
OS:                Linux

I am using the Aero Ambiance Aurorae style and when windows are maximized they seem to "lap" over to the other screen (but nothing visible, nor a shadow is there) and thus the windows is visible on both panels (I set them to only display windows of the current screen). If I restore the window it is shown on only one taskbar, if I manually choose fullscreen (where the deocration naturally disappears) the second entry also vanished

Reproducible: Always

I see the same behavior using KDE 4.5.1 and a dual screen setup.
If I set the corresponding Border* setting = 0 in the theme's rc file, then it works as expected (except that the decoration looks ugly of course). Maybe there is something wrong with the way aurorae calculates and/or reports the border sizes in maximized mode?!

Just noticed that my windows no longer appear on both taskbars when maximized. But I‘ll keep a track on that before marking it as fixed.

Addition: Weird, just the two Chromium browser windows I have open atm don‘t show this bug but every other window I may maximize appears on both taskbars as well.

Another weird thing is that I have an Aurorae theme with custom shadows. When moving a window to the right corner of the left monitor, it snaps/attaches to the corner and its shadow is visible on the other screen. It is still shown only on the taskbar of the left monitor. When maximizing, the shadow disappears but the window is then visible on both taskbars.

Is this still an issue with a later version of Aurorae? Best would be to be able to test with 4.9

still present on KDE 4.12.1.
