Description Yao Mitachi 2023-04-14 17:49:46 UTC
SUMMARY
I have two monitors: one 2560x1440 display (no rotation) and to its right a 1920x1080 display rotated 90 degrees clockwise. The 1440p display has no issues with its tiles. On login, windows on the rotated display are created relatively close to the tile I had them in last time, but aren't in the tile. One window is ~30 pixels below the top of the screen tile, and the bottom of the bottom window is ~94 pixels above the panel.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Rotate a secondary monitor and give it a default panel
2. Set custom tiling to split it into two more squarish sections
3. With a window in each of those two sections, log out, log back in, and reopen those apps

OBSERVED RESULT
Windows are not in their tiles.

EXPECTED RESULT
Windows should be in their tiles.

Correction: This applies to both monitors actually, not just the rotated one, I've found. The issue was just more subtle on the non-rotated one.
