plasma panel overlaying maximized firefox
I can confirm this problem. It only happens when I use two monitors. It is a bit annoying since I cannot reach the buttons to close a window or un-maximize it.
Sorry, forgot to mention details of my setup. I use Chakra Linux, a very fresh install. KDE version 4.7.4. $ uname -a Linux yngve-chakra 3.1-CHAKRA #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Dec 6 22:49:14 UTC 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8600 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux I'm happy to provide more details if asked for. [Multimonitor Issue] Same issue here on ArchLinux, KDE 4.10.3 Also see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261674 Got from [Enrico] on IRC that having TOP Y Axis of the monitors aligned is a workarround and indeed it is for me. Though not a really good one since that makes my mouse to warp up when switching monitor because of the placement. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 319840 *** |
Created attachment 64687 [details] screenshot that describes both the bug and screen arrangment Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: Linux When I set my two monitors relative position to the natural way they are arranged on the desktop using this command: xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --mode 1280x1024 --pos 0x0 \ --output LVDS-1 --mode 1280x800 --pos 1280x380 --primary Then when I maximize windows on primary screen (laptop screen, LVDS-1) they fill up the whole screen and top panel shows on top of the window. I attach screenshots of xrandr configuration and laptop screen to illustrate that better. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect external monitor and get its xrandr name. 2. export EXTERNAL=<name of the external output> export INTERNAL=<name of the internal output> 3. Find out resolution of external monitor export POS=<horisonal resolution of external monitor>x<500> 4. xrandr --output $EXTERNAL --auto --pos 0x0 \ --output $INTERNAL --auto --pos $POS --primary 5. Ensure you have a top panel on internal output 5. Maximize a window on internal output Actual Results: Window title is covered by the top panel. Expected Results: Window is maximized and its title is right below the top panel I use two panels on the primary monitor, bottom panel KDE style, top panel with launchers.
