Re: [Bug 549683] Re: Dock not correctly drawn on multi screen

 

Hello Matthieu,

Thanks to be so reactive.

I've tried what you've ask :

- Xinerama mode, 'Décalage latéral' set to 0 (default)
Although yesterday I said that it corrects the problem in fact it doesn't

- weekly ppa
Same result, the problem is still there.

Nevertheless,  I can give you another clue :

Whatever is the configuration (xinerama, weekly ppa), if I launch CD 
after I'm logged in (gnome desktop displayed) the problem doesn't 
appear, but if I launch CD during gnome session startup then, whetever 
the configuration is, the problem appears.

To launch CD at startup I have added in 'Système > Préférences > 
Application au Démarrage' an entry for CD with the command : 
/usr/bin/cairo-dock -c

Thanks

Dock not correctly drawn on multi screen

You received this bug notification because you are a member of Cairo-
Dock Team, which is subscribed to Cairo-Dock Core.

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core: New

Bug description:
The background of the dock is not correctly drawn on the right side, as you can see on the picture.

The configuration is :
- 2 monitors
- cairo position is way shifted on the left (the origin of the error IMHO). Posistion is : Décalage latéral = -642

Filling this bug, I've just discovered the xinerama option in Position option using it and resetting Décalage latéral to 0 (the default), everything works perfectly.

Anyway, I believe there is a little bug with the dock background when changing lateral shift a lot, so I keep this bug report opened

More details :
- ubuntu 9.10 x64
- cairo : 2.1.3.7
- Nvidia driver : 185.18.36
- screen 0 : 1680x1050
- screen 1 : 1280x1024
- cairo-dock mode : pb either with glx or not
