Thank you for your bug report. That ticket is quite old and we didn't
get recent report of the problem, also it seems to work correctly now,
closing. Feel free to reopen if you can still reproduce in more recent
versions.

Title:
  dragging windows between screens is broken for monitors with
  mismatched resolutions

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have a laptop with a 1920x1080 display and whenever I plug in an
  external monitor I have it configured to be above the laptop monitor.

  If I plug in a 1920x1080 external monitor, dragging windows with the
  mouse from the laptop monitor up to the external monitor works fine.

  If I plug in a 1680x1050 external monitor, ie with a smaller
  resolution, I can only drag windows from the laptop monitor up to the
  external monitor when I move the mouse through the unity panel on the
  left of the screen. When the mouse is too far right while dragging a
  window, it stops at the unity panel and I get the compiz 'maximize
  window' orange background; if I keep pushing the mouse, it moves into
  the screen above but leaves the window behind.

  How far left I have to move the mouse appears to be related to the
  width of the window - I can move smaller windows up to the top monitor
  when the mouse is further on the right. It isn't the difference
  between the horizontal resolutions, either - eg in this case you might
  expect that you can't drag the window through the right-most 240
  pixels (= 1920-1680), but in fact it is a much larger distance than
  this.

  There are also a range of mouse locations on the left where I am able
  to drag the window to the top monitor, but when I do so the window
  jumps immediately to the top of the monitor - sometimes it is
  completely above the monitor so I don't know where it has gone; other
  times I see the lower half of it.
