Package: jitsi
Version: 2.4.4997-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

When I use jitsi on a dual-moniter desktop, and have the smaller monitor
panning up/down to match the larger desktop's height, when I click any
dropdown menu on the jitsi interface the menus only pop up within the
non-panning desktop space, even if the widget is outside that area. If
the clicked part of the main interface is in the "pan-able" area (outside
the "starting desktop area"), the dropdown menu appears inside the
nearest edge of the "non pan-able area" (which sometimes means not even
within present view - with the widget appearing to the user to have just
frozen). I suspect this might be a problem with an underlying java
library, but am not familiar enough with java to investigate if it is
Jitsi-specific or not.

The appropriate parts of the xrandr settings which exposed this are:

----
LVDS1 connected 1366x768+0+912
 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
 293mm x 164mm

   1366x768       60.0*+   40.0
----
HDMI1 connected 1050x1680+1366+0 left
 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
 433mm x 270mm panning 1680x0+0+0

   1680x1050      60.0*+
----

Which looks like this:

 -----------------------
 | /  /  /  / |        |
 | A-pan-able |        |
 | /  /  /  / |        |
 -------------|   B    |
 |           ||        |
 |    A      ||        |
 |           ||        |
 |           ||        |
 -----------------------

With the relevant part of the jitsi main widget in the "A-pan-able"
area the dropdowns appear within the upper edge of "A" (sometimes not
even visible to the user).
