Dear e-edevelopers, firstly thank you for the way the E18 treats the multiple-screen setups. The independent sets of virtual desktops for the screens is a far more efficient approach than how this is treated in the other desktop environments. In order to help E18 perfection, I would like to report few issues connected with the Screen Setup that would be great if they are fixed:
1) Once enabling a new screen, part of the configuration specific to the 2nd screen does not load/apply - typically the background image (copy of the background from the 1st screen is used instead) and some systray applications (usualy Skype) are kicked out from the systray module to top-left corner of the 2nd screen. All these issues get fixed by doing E18 restart. 2) Occasionally, the "Screen Setup" does not see an already connected second monitor, while other screen-setup applications like arandr does see it. 3) Occasionally, different resolution is applied, despite what was selected in the "Screen Setup" for the 2nd screen. Restarting E18 and re-applying the correct resolution fixes the problem. However, again using arandr the correct resolution is used on the first try. 4) In the "Screen Setup" dialog, while there is nice "automatic affinity" of the screens to each other and to the edges in to horizonal direction, the same feature is not working well in the vertical direction. The issues 2) and 3) seem to be specific to connected the external monitor. PS: Just in case some of the issues are specific to the screens virtual placement, my typical setup is having primary notebook display placed under the external monitor, with the screens aligned by the left edge.
