[Bug 1475721] Re: (Horizontal) Maximized and Fullscreen Windows activated in different workspace move to primary display

 

** Description changed:

- when in a multi monitor (this case is laptop + external) multi workspace environment, if a window in a workspace other than the current one in display is activated, said window moves to the "primary" display "from external monitor to laptop" in my case.
+ Prerequisite: multi monitor and multi workspace environment
+ 
+ 1) Move to a secondary workspace and open your default browser (firefox, chrome...)
+    window, then move it to the secondary monitor¹ and maximize it (or full screen it).
+ 2) Move to the primary workspace and in a terminal launch:
+    xdg-open http://ubuntu.com
+ 3) Now move back to the secondary workspace
+ 
+ Expected:
+ 4) The browser loads Ubuntu homepage and is still in the secondary monitor (where it
+    used to be)
+ 
+ Actual:
+ 4) The browser loads Ubuntu homepage, but it has been moved to the primary monitor.
+ 
  I attached a video where this is displayed by showing that the browser maximized is in monitor 3 of workspace, I go to different workspace, click a link, upon returning the window is now in the laptop monitor.
  This only happens when the window is maximized.
+ 
+ [1] primary monitor could change in compiz (and not match the xrandr
+ one), then you might need to try to figure which one is yours.
