Description Bill Sanford 2013-09-23 15:11:25 UTC

Description of problem:
I have two displays with a Windows 7x86 VM and both are 1024 x 768 and everything is fine with them at the same resolution. Once I start moving them when they are in windowed mode, things start changing.

Once I start resizing the displays, whichever display has the bigger resolution, virt-viewer sets that to the main display in "Windows -> Screen Resolution" and that display gets shifted to the left in that same configuration dialog box.

Since this is happening, the taskbar gets moved to the main display. I believe this is the correct behavior based on and incorrect behavior.

Comment 2 Marc-Andre Lureau 2014-03-07 17:49:59 UTC

How is this a regression? compared to what version?

The behaviour has changed a bit in upstream, and all layout logic is now in virt-viewer (it used to be partially in spice-gtk).

The display are ordered based on window position by left-right, top-bottom, id, whenever are reconfiguration is triggered.

That should solve this bug, agreed?

Comment 3 Jonathon Jongsma 2014-03-07 18:04:26 UTC

Indeed, this particular bug is fixed upstream. I didn't see this bug earlier, but it's the same as Bug 1018180, which is now in POST.  marking this as a duplicate.
