Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: Linux When I enable second screen (x-video) on the left of the main screen, the widgets slide right and I do not see most of them on the main screen. If I do the same but place the second monitor on top of the first, I see no widgets on the main screen altogether. Everything seems to be fine in case of placing second screen to the right or below the first screen. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: In the examples below, the main screen has green desktop background, the secondary – blue. Attach x-video cable and run in console: ## to get widgets partly visible xrandr --output 'LVDS1' --primary --mode 1280x800 \ --output 'TV1' --mode 1024x768 --left-of LVDS1 ## result: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/10/29/web_grid-desktop-left.png ## to get widgets fully invisible xrandr --output 'LVDS1' --primary --mode 1280x800 \ --output 'TV1' --mode 1024x768 --above LVDS1 # result: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/10/29/web_grid-desktop-above.png ## to get normal view: xrandr --output 'LVDS1' --primary --mode 1280x800 \ --output 'TV1' --mode 1024x768 --right-of LVDS1 # result: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/10/29/web_grid-desktop-right.png ## or xrandr --output 'LVDS1' --primary --mode 1280x800 \ --output 'TV1' --mode 1024x768 --below LVDS1 # result: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/10/29/web_grid-desktop-below.png Actual Results: In case of options "--left-of LVDS1" and "--above LVDS1" you will see a disfigured desktop – either part of the main screen or the whole of it is not covered with grid. Expected Results: The normal operation should be the same as it is in case "--right-of LVDS1" and "--below LVDS1" – the widgets should not move anywhere from the main screen, and the grid should cover all the screen.
