Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Cause: Display configuration sometimes used outdated information about the position of the virt-viewer/remote-viewer windows in order to align and configure the guest displays
Consequence: Sometimes the guest displays were configured with overlapping regions. Different client windows showed some of the same content.
Fix: Always use the current window location to align and configure displays
Result: Display configuration works properly and guest displays do not get overlapped.

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
I can reproduce with:
virt-viewer-0.5.6-8.el6.x86_64
1. Get dual head client with different resolutions of windows
2. Open two displays with full screen.
3. Click leave screen on the primary display, then change it to fullscreen again.
Result:
The primary display will cover part of the other display.And check the "Display Preferences", one display overlaps other one.
I can reproduce with:
virt-viewer-0.5.6-8.el6.x86_64
Verify with virt-viewer-0.6.0-5.el6.x86_64
1. Get dual head client with different resolutions of windows
2. Open two displays on guest (have position of primary displays swapped between client and guest)
3. Switch the one on secondary display of client to fullscreen
Result:
two displays have no overlap.
Also test as comment 3. Result is expected, two displays have no overlap.
As the result, VERIFIED this bug.
