** Description changed: - Binary package hint: unity + With the new external padding/resize drag area introduced in light- + themes=0.1.8.5 to help with LP: #160311 it is not possible to resize a + window exactly against the boundaries of the edge of the screen. - With a fully updated system I note two things which seem to be one bug:- + There are two main parts to this. - 1) Left hand window grab handle (for resizing) is outside the window itself. This can be observed by moving the mouse to the left edge of a window and then moving outside on the left. - 2) Window cannot be fully aligned with left side of desktop. Observe the screenshot attached. There is a gap between the terminal window (occupying the left display) and the browser window (occupying the right display). The browser is pushed hard up against the left side of the right display, but there is still a notable gap. + (a) The extent of the shadowing is used as the window outside. When released, the window ends up being smaller. + (b) When click is initiated N pixels outside the window border, the pointer will reach the edge of the screen N pixels too soon; prevent resizing exactly against the edge. - ProblemType: Bug - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 - Package: unity 3.2.16-0ubuntu1 - ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.37-12.26-generic 2.6.37 - Uname: Linux 2.6.37-12-generic x86_64 - NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia - .proc.driver.nvidia.version: - NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 260.19.29 Wed Dec 8 12:08:56 PST 2010 - GCC version: gcc version 4.5.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.5.2-1ubuntu6) - Architecture: amd64 - CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins' - CompositorRunning: compiz - Date: Sun Jan 30 21:34:10 2011 - DistUpgraded: Yes, recently upgraded Log time: 2011-01-19 12:33:17.207056 - DistroCodename: natty - DistroVariant: ubuntu - DkmsStatus: - nvidia-current, 260.19.29, 2.6.37-12-generic, x86_64: installed - nvidia-current, 260.19.29, 2.6.38-1-generic, x86_64: installed - vboxhost, 3.2.12, 2.6.37-12-generic, x86_64: installed - vboxhost, 3.2.12, 2.6.35-24-generic, x86_64: installed - GraphicsCard: Subsystem: LeadTek Research Inc.
