[Bug 966807] Re: dragging windows between screens is broken for monitors with mismatched resolutions
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.
