Title:
unity 2D missing the menu panel with stacked monitors
Status in unity-2d package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I'm using the Unity 2D login option on my Lenovo T510 which is
configured in the bios to use just the discrete NVidia graphics:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT218 [NVS
3100M] (rev a2)
If I configure an external monitor (using nvidia-settings) and put it
above or below my laptop's monitor, the panel at the top of the
external monitor is missing. This causes issues with the menus for
any programs on the external monitor (unless I disable unified menus)
and causes problems for applications that are maximized (since they
have no titlebar and no unmaximize button).
I also note that if I put the external monitor above my laptop's
screen, the laptop does is not treated as the main display, even
though it is marked as such in the nvidia-settings (unlike normal
unity, which places the main interface on the laptop even when the
laptop is not the "highest" display).
Note that this bug is not related to #842745, since that is talking
about the launcher and monitors that are not aligned on the left.
Though my monitors are of differing size, they are aligned on the left
edge.
