[Bug 280710] Re: Expo: Workspaces cross monitor edges, implement a "One big smart wall" output option, that ensures workspaces are not cut between displays

 

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. The compiz program
that we currently use in Ubuntu is a C++ re-write of the original compiz
and was announced the 4th July 2010. Therefore, the bugs that were
reported before that date, will be marked as "Won't Fix" as they
probably exist in the original program which is not stored in launchpad.
(The last LTS that used the old compiz is the 10.04 which is not
supported anymore).

** Changed in: compiz
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix

** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix

Title:
  Expo: Workspaces cross monitor edges, implement a "One big smart wall"
  output option, that ensures workspaces are not cut between displays

Status in Compiz:
  Won't Fix
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  If you have multiple monitors and hit the expo key, the exposed
  workspaces will be shown over your multiple monitors. This may split
  your workspaces in an unattractive way, as the screenshot shows.
  Suggested solution: make sure each workspace is shown on a single
  monitor.

  Task:
  Implement a third output mode option named "One big smart wall" in Expo, which will make
  sure the workspaces are not cut between displays.
