Resizing a terminal window can put it on multiple virtual desktops

[Mathijs]

Binary package hint: compiz

I run Ubuntu Hardy 8.04, with desktop effects enabled. I configured 2x2 virtual desktops, use the 'snapping windows' plugin and the 'human-clearlooks' theme. My resolution is 1280x1024. When I drag a window to screen width, the window becomes slightly wider then 1280 pixels, and the dragged border is partially placed on the adjacent virtual desktop. This causes the window to appear in the task bars of both virtual desktops, which is annoying.

Steps to reproduce:
1) use compiz, 2x2 virtual desktops, the snapping windows plugin, a resolution of 1280x1024 and the human-clearlooks theme
2) create a terminal window on the top-left virtual desktop
3) place the window in the top-left corner of the screen (it 'snaps' there)
4) drag the right border of that window all the way to the right of the screen

Expected behavior: the window is 1280 pixels wide (or slightly less) and is only located on the top-left virtual desktop
Actual behavior: the window is slightly wider than 1280 pixels, and is located on both the top-left and top-right virtual desktops (and their task bars)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Could you try to reproduce the same with Ubuntu 8.10 or 9.04? Thanks in advance.
