Multihead issues with the Panel or the Panel plugins

[Joao Pedrosa]

Hi,

Well, I should have started a thread on this.

Summary of the problems I found so far:

1. "Xfce4 Menu" plugin works only on the first monitor. On the second
monitor it does not appear, ever.

2. "Show Desktop" plugin works only on the first monitor, even though it
appears on the second one as well.
But on the second one it controls the desktop of the first monitor.

3. "Window List" plugin works only on the first monitor, even though it
appears on the second one as well.
But on the second one it controls the desktop of the first monitor.

One more:

4. The popup windows of the tasks lists on the second monitor appear on the
first one, but still work ok
by controlling the right windows. What's the popup window? The menu that
appears with the right click on
the window button.

Those aren't show-stoppers for me, so I will use this version of Xfce the
see if I can spot more problems
with multi-head. For example, I'm not sure if the windows when the session
is restarted are respecting
the position of the panel on the second monitor. On the previous version of
Xfce that I used, sometimes
the windows would get their title bars hidden behind the panel after session
restarts. And in this latest
version of Xfce, I just saw the same thing happen on the second monitor.
Next time it happens I will
take a screenshot to show it to you.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Joao
