What happens on screen activation is the following: 1. the laptop screen activates first (for just an instant), so all the windows are placed according to the parameters of the workspaces according to this screen size.
2. the multi-monitor configuration then kicks in, the windows getting placed again according to the new configuration. Practically speaking what happens to me is the following... I will have my windows arranged according to a single high resolution external display. The instantaneous step 1 replaced the windows according to my lower-res laptop display. Step 2 then tries to distribute these replaced windows according to the external display. The result is a bunch of window scattered onto various workspaces. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579678 Title: ubuntu unity workspace switcher state reset after screen lock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1579678/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
