[Bug 1508538] Re: SideBySide multimonitor - window on removed display not repositioned to remaining display

 

Confirmed: if the client is on the removed display and that display is
_not_ the top left one, then you will lose sight of the client window.
If however you removed the top-left display then the remaining displays
reshuffle and your app will still be on screen.

Workaround for mir_proving_server: Alt+Tab to the window then Alt+mousedrag to pull the window over from off-screen.
Workaround for Unity7/Compiz: Alt+Tab to the window then Alt+F7 to grab it and pull the window over from off-screen.

No known workarounds for mir_demo_server*. However I expect they will be
the first to get fixes because this is directly related to window
management (DisplayLayout changes and window placement).

** Summary changed:

- SideBySide multimonitor - window on removed display not repositioned to remaining display
+ Window is off-screen after unplugging a secondary display
