[Bug 1247277] [NEW] connect/disconnect external monitor causes window positions to be changed

 

Public bug reported:

This is a continuation of bug #763148, which has been marked as
resolved.  While compiz no longer moves windows between workspaces, it
still moves the windows around within each workspace, and in particular
tends to wrap windows that are far to the right/bottom over to the
left/top.

The expected behavior is that, if there is a saved geometry for a
window, it's restored; and if the window is off the new window geometry,
the window is /shifted/ to fit on the workspace instead of being
wrapped.

This was working 100% correctly for me as of commit 3646 on lp:~compiz-
team/compiz/0.9.9/ back in April, but it almost immediately regressed
due to behavior changes in a different plugin and was broken by the time
13.04 released.
