Description Elijah Newren 2006-08-08 01:22:53 UTC
I'm spinning this off from Rob's comments in bug 349613:

  Note that there is still an issue with window constraints and void areas that
  we should probably fix sometime (basically void areas need to count as
  offscreen in offscreen constraints).  Not sure if there's already a bug about
  that.

I think that adding a special strut for the area would fix almost everything; the only other special thing we might need to check for is making sure the maximized windows get the right size (if they don't already...).

gah, stupid searches couldn't find this bug.  To make it easier: screen xinerama void constraints

There, now searches like "xinerama void" can find this bug.

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/metacity/-/issues/

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