Package: libgtk2.0-0 Version: 2.8.20-7 Severity: important I have a three head setup, using Xinerama to combine the three monitors into a single logical screen. At 3x1280 by 1024, I thus have a screen estate of 3840x1024 pixels.
GTK applications fail to position themselves properly on that
estate. The idea with my setup is that a window opens on the head
with the mouse pointer. Mathematically, in my setup, the horizontal
position of the window should be Wx on the head H, given by the
following equations. Mx is the horizontal position Mx of the mouse:
H = int(Mx / 1280) // division without remainder
Wx = Mx % 1280 // the remainder
This seems to work now and then, but if an application remembers the
size of its window and it was shut down full-screen (1280x1024 in my
setup; such as iceweasel, jpilot, kazehakase), the mouse position
will be multiplied by 0.5 before the horizontal window position is
computed, and the number of the head seems to be ignored. The first
two also apply to a dual-screen setup:
- if mouse on head 0 (0 <= Mx < 1280), window origin is +0+0
it thus displays properly on head 0
- if mouse on head 1 (1280 <= Mx < 2560), window origin is +640+0
it thus displays half on head 0 and half on head 1
- if mouse on head 2 (2560 <= Mx < 3840), window origin is +1280+0
it thus displays full-screen on head 1 (but not 2 as it should)
If the window is not restored at full-screen size, positioning seems
to work okay.
The above does not apply to applications like Gimp and buffy, which
restore their positions after drawing the window.
Thanks for looking into this.
