See patch.
Created attachment 278400 [details] [review] screenShield: Animate the shield only on the primary monitor On multiple monitor setups animating the whole stage sized shield looks broken, particularly with vertical monitor arrangements or with different resolutions. This patch makes secondary monitors show a static lock screen background instead.
I have my monitors in an L shape (2×22", portrait 1050×1680 + landscape 1680×1050). The screenshield looks exactly as I expect it to be, i.e. if I lift it 3cm high, it’s lifted that height on both monitors. The bottom of the shield is aligned throughout the whole animation. Do we still need that patch?
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
