Fixed In Version: virt-viewer-0.6.0-1.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Display configuration sometimes used outdated information about the position of the virt-viewer/remote-viewer windows in order to align and configure the guest displays Consequence: Sometimes the guest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.

Description Tomas Jamrisko 2013-08-28 14:21:26 UTC 
Created attachment 791413 [details]
Left display is fullscreen guest, right one is maximized. Notice how left side of the primary display appears in both windows

Description of problem:
Opening two monitors on a dual head setup and switching one of them to fullscreen can result in its corruption -- displaying parts of the other window

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spice-gtk-0.20-5.el6.x86_64
virt-viewer-0.5.6-7.el6.x86_64
spice-vdagent-0.14.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

How reproducible:
Fairly often

Steps to Reproduce:
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

Actual results:
See screenshot

Comment 3 CongDong 2013-10-24 01:48:05 UTC 
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.

Comment 8 CongDong 2014-06-09 06:23:31 UTC 
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.
