Description Michael Bienia 2010-02-03 21:07:01 UTC 
I'm having a dual-screen setup (a 17" LCD left of a 24" LCD) and wanted to use evince 2.29.5 (from Ubuntu lucid) to view a presentation in presentation mode.
evince tried correctly to only use the monitor where evince was displayed but it also inserted a black area and moved the presentation itself to the right so it got cut off the screen. It doesn't matter which one of my LCD I try this on, it happens on both. Fullscreen itself works fine.

In the attached screenshot the visible wallpaper is my left (smaller) LCD and the black area and the cutoff presentation is what I see on my "main" LCD. (The presentation is an example from latex-beamer).

I managed to reproduce it with my tv as a second monitor. I'm already working on it.
