Description agilob 2016-09-18 06:36:03 UTC
I have a second screen connected to my laptop. Laptop screen is the main screen. Second monitor has a panel too. When I close laptop lid the panel from is moved from laptop screen to second monitor and the second monitor has to panels.

This also affects other widgets. If I add a widget like analogue clock and close laptop lid the widget is moved to the second screen, but for widgets it's reversible. When I open the laptop lid, the widget comes back its original place.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have panel or widget on a screen, preferably on laptop screen
2. Close laptop lid/screen
3.


Expected Results:  
I would expect the widgets and panels to stay on the screen, dont move them to different screen, they should just disappear with the screen.

Laptop, ATI, opensource driver. If you need any other configuration I have please let me know.

It's duplicate of #348095.

I just tested it again and all panels and widgets and windows say on the same screen when laptop lid is closed.
