[Bug 1353675] Re: _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS not handled correctly

 

Although the original bug has been fixed, the screen blinks terribly if
the window is not active. The path is:

Open Windows 7 guest system in VirtualBox, full screen, on the right monitor.
It displays correctly in full screen mode.
Click anywhere on the LEFT screen, e.g. in Firefox.
Each time you move your mouse, or press a keyboard button, areas of the screen in the right monitor flicker.

Title:
  _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS not handled correctly

Status in Compiz:
  In Progress
Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  PrivateWindow::setFullscreenMonitors() contains the following:

          CompRect fsRect (screen->outputDevs ()[monitors->left].x1 (),
                           screen->outputDevs ()[monitors->top].y1 (),
                           screen->outputDevs ()[monitors->right].x2 (),
                           screen->outputDevs ()[monitors->bottom].y2 ());

  However, the prototype is:

  CompRect::CompRect (int x, int y, int width, int height)

  This causes Compiz to miscalculate the dimensions of a full-screen
  window when the EWMH protocol _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS is used.
