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

 

Just some feedback:

With the last updates Xinerama seams to be not working (if I choose
screen 0 the dock disappears ) and the best configuration I can do you
can see in the attached screenshot where you can see the weather subdock
at the middle of both screens.

Dock not correctly drawn on multi screen using cairo backend

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: Confirmed

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
