Description Mamatha 2002-08-14 12:19:54 UTC
Tested on Gnome 2.0 Solaris sparc 8 (Solaris  Multihead)
Source Details : nautiuls - branch multihead by Aug 6 13:26:00 BST 2002  
                Version :2.0.3
 
Some desktop preferences capplets are not working properly.

Configure a multihead server with two screens on left(scr0) and right
(scr1).

I)
1. Invoke any GNOME application say gnome-calculator, in both scr1 and 
src2.
2. Select 'Applications->Desktop Preferences->Font’, the 'Font 
Preferences’ window pops up.
3. Change the ‘Application font'
The changed font getting reflected only the applications in first screen 
(src0)

II)
1. Invoke 'Theme Preferences’ window and change the theme.
The changed theme is getting reflected only in first screen (src0)

III)
1
. Keyboard Shortcuts such as 'Take a screen shot of the window -Alt+Print',
'Display 'run' dialogue - Alt+F2, 'Popup the panel menu- Alt+F1 ' are not 
working in second screen.

Problem should be on control center capplet rather than metacity?!
Comment 2 Luis Villa 2002-08-26 18:58:34 UTC
Most likely all of these are problems in gtk's multihead stuff, not
the control-center capplet or metacity. Owen, is this correct?
Comment 3 Luis Villa 2002-08-26 19:01:57 UTC
Erwann: is this a multihead gtk thing?
Comment 4 Owen Taylor 2002-08-26 20:16:10 UTC
gnome-settings-daemon bug; it needs to set the XSETTINGS on
all screens.
Comment 5 Jody Goldberg 2002-08-27 15:21:20 UTC
I had a feeling that was it.
control center will need a fair amount of simple tweaking to convert all the
places that access just the default display.
Comment 6 Mamatha 2002-08-29 10:12:23 UTC
Tested on beta 2 build 4 .
Still i am able to observe the 'Font' problem.

Please refer bug #91962 for  'Theme Preferences’ 
and bug #91962  for 'Keyboard shortcuts' .
