Public bug reported: When I plug my laptop(Lenovo T420, i5 2520m) into a secondary monitor above it, there are a few major problems. When I switch to the setup initially, all of my applications go to the upper monitor, and get maximized. When I try to unmaxmize it, it dissappears. When I click on it's icon in the Unity toolbar it appears almost all the way off the screen(to the left). But the big problem is when I try and move windows to the bottom screen, the top edge of the application will not go below the bottom of the top screen, and I cannot maximize windows on my laptop screen.
Also, when I switch between two windows of the same application, the selection window is in the split between the monitors and under the bar at the top of my laptop screen.
