[Launchpad Bug Tracker <934292@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I minimized a full-screen browser window on my laptop, plugged and
turned on an external monitor, and restored the window. The resulting
window is not sized correctly - the tabs are not visible because they
are either off the top of the scrren or behind the panel. The left edge
of the window is hidden behind the launcher (which I have set to display
permanently - no autohide).

To reproduce:
1`) Open a fullscreen browser window. I am using FF
2) Minmize the window
3) Enable an external monitor (1280x1024 in my case, vs my laptop's internal screen of 1440x900). I am using NVIDIA's 'twinview' feature to extend the desktop to the second screen.
4) Click on the browser icon in the launcher to restore the window

Expected results:
The browser window is restored on the laptop's internal screen (my primary display). The browser window is sized as it previously was.

Actual results:
The browser window is restored on the laptop's internal screen but the tabs at the top of the screen are cut off and the left edge of the window is hidden behind the launcher. The browser window contents look correct (and tabs are included) in the alt-tab switcher and the view of all windows you get from Super-W.

I do not know whether this only happens if you enable an external
monitor, and I don't know whether the size of the external monitor
relative to the primary/laptop display matters.
