Description Johannes Schmid 2009-02-12 14:18:24 UTC
Some notes on my setup first:
- Two monitors on an ATI Radeon HD3650 with radeon driver and xrandr
- The "second" monitor is actually attached to what X11 takes as "primary" (Screen 0) display. This seems like a problem with the radeon driver because when I change the connection it won't detect both monitors...

If have a panel on my "primary" monitor (Screen 1) with a window list applet that is set to "Show only windows of active workspace". This works about 50% of the time but the other 50% it just show the windows of Screen 0 instead of those from Screen 1.

I would like that it would always show me the windows of Screen 1 and not only 50% of the time.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-panel/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
