[Bug 1901507] Re: Cairo Dock moves to left screen (screen 1) even if position is set to screen 0

 

works much better, it does not move on the other screen . I noticed
though some overlay. I added a screenshot. I can provide more debugging
if needed

Title:
  Cairo Dock moves to left screen (screen 1) even if position is set to
  screen 0

Status in Cairo-Dock Core:
  New

Bug description:
  When CairoDock is started, or the screen locks itself or goes to
  screensaver and then back I get the dock displayed in the wrong side
  of the screen. I will clarify

  1 - use case start up
  I login 
  Move the mouse where the dock is supposed to be, bottom of screen 0 (right)
  Cairo displays on screen 1 (left)

  2- screensaver - screenlock
  I run use case 3, position is good
  I go for a coffee and screensaver starts after a while or lock screen
  I come back and cairo is on screen 1 instead of screen 0
  I run use case 3 to fix it

  3 - Reconfigure position
  I open cairo config
  Set the screen to 1, save, position does not change, stays on the left
  Set the screen back to 0, finally Cairo moves to the right

  Above is quite frustrating. I spend a lot of time doing step 3 every
  day. I did not have this problem with the Radeon AMX card. I recently
  installed an Nvidia RTX 2070 and got this problem.

  Checked for current bugs. But look to different from mine

  problem.
