[Bug 1174201] Re: maximized windows are moved between monitors when switching to them

 

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected compiz-0.9 raring third-party-packages
ubuntu

** Description changed:

  On dual monitor setup, when I switch to window maximized on the left
  (smaller) monitor, the window is is moved to the right (bigger) monitor
  and maximized there.  The effect is demonstrated on the attached video.
  This behaviour appeared after upgrading from quantal to raring.
  
  System: Ubuntu 13.04
  Compiz version: 1:0.9.9~daily13.04.18.1~13.04-0ubuntu1
  Reproducible: always
  Expected behaviour: (maximized) window stays at the same place when switched to
  Observed behaviour: maximized window is moved to the bigger (?) monitor
  
  As you can imagine, this is extremely annoying.
