            Bug ID: 15632
           Summary: multi monitor: Alignment regression
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Xfce4-settings
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: Display Settings
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: dave at treblig.org
  Target Milestone: Xfce 4.14

This has worked fine for me for ages but has regressed in an update somewhere
in the last week on Fedora 30; see below for versions.

When logging in the alignment of the two monitors is wrong; with the smaller of
my two monitors being at the top rather than the bottom.

I've got two systems that are affected:
   a) Desktop: Main UHD monitor and HD monitor to the right
   b) Work laptop: Main UHD monitor and internal LCD to the left

I arrange the monitors such that in the 'display' setting they're aligned at
the bottom - but the change in the last week has seen the lower res
monitor being aligned at the top.

Here's my xrandr output from my Desktop, after I've pulled them back into the
right position:


Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 5760 x 2160, maximum 16384 x 16384
DP-1 connected primary 3840x2160+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
621mm x 341mm
....
HDMI-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-D-1 connected 1920x1080+3840+1080 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 477mm x 268mm
....

so all look like minor upgrades; not sure which component is causing it.

[I'm seeing a related bug on my work laptop but not my home desktop where the
Display settings dialog isn't redrawing properly - most widgets are hidden
until something on them changes;
but that's fine on my Desktop]
