Forwarded from https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651130 See also the attached screenshot at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=188863 My Dell E6410 laptop (intel integrated graphics) is connected to an external monitor (1280 x 1024). I use both the laptop screen (1280 x 800) and the external monitor. Now, when pressing Alt+` to switch between currently open windows, the window switcher (shown on the laptop monitor) is vertically stretched and partially falls off the screen. The Alt+Tab application switcher itself is shown correctly, it's just the window switcher for apps with multiple windows that gives the problem.
g-s is clearly easily confused regarding multiple monitor setups.
No. The vertical stretching of the window textures in the switcher is almost guaranteed to be not our bug. It doesn't happen with my Ironlake graphics when connected to an external monitor, nor my nvidia system (with either nouveau or nvidia proprietary).
My observation was based on that g-s did not know the extents of the displays within the framebuffer, or at least drew the monitor labels on the wrong monitor and drew a fullscreen application that was on the second monitor split across both monitors with a gap at the top.
What? "monitor labels"? "draw a fullscreen application"?
