Thanks Martin for testing my patch, I'm glad it fixed the problem for you. With regards to the screen size issues you are facing, I'm 99.9% sure it's not caused by xfdesktop, but xfce4-settings. Have you tried reverting the patch or even disabling xfdesktop (xfdesktop -Q)? I'm confident the behavior will be the same.
Also, have a look at recent improvements to screen management made by Simon: https://simon.shimmerproject.org/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1781298 Title: desktop app crashed when i switched inputs on my monitor away and back (possibly not the cause) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1781298/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
