Description Olivier Churlaud 2016-08-16 09:28:30 UTC 
If I open a youtube video in full screen, or a presentation with Okular, the full screen "window" is always on the left.

Moving the application in the other screen doesn't change anything, changing the primary screen neither. So I must have my secondary screen or projector on the left so that it works.

Again: tell me what info you would need to debug more. Thx

Reproducible: Always

* xprop and xwininfo of affected fullscreen windows

Uh.. I cannot reproduce on this screen. I'll have to do it next time.

setting to waitsforinfo till we have the requested information.

This is quite likely more related to the applications used, i.e, certain games will go fullscreen left always.

As an experiment I tried switching my gfx outputs around - this results in the same behavior. This may also be related to a bug I'm about to file which is that when the system wakes from hibernation, firefox (and maybe other applications) that get made fullscreen or maximised are permanently moved to the left screen until reduced again.
