Bug Description

Using metacity compositor on ubuntu 9.04 64 bit with nvidia binary driver.

Resized screen resolution from 1024x768 to 1280x1024 and docky migrated to lower middle third of screen. Could bring it up by hotkey, but mouseover would not bring it it. Seems on screen resize, docky's coordinates need to be recalculated.

logging out and relogging back in fixed it up, but hopefully problem can be avoided in the future.

Restarting Docky should be sufficient. You can restart Do or change themes to another theme and back to Docky and it should fix it.

I was aware of this bug but completely forgot about it. Thanks for the report. :-)

Seems this bug isn't fixed completely.

What I did: starting a game using wine in fullscreen mode. This works fine and uses a resolution of 640x480 or something. When quitting the game, screen resolution goes back to my original values of 1024x768. Works nicely too, but for Gnome-Do dock. It remains somewhere in the middle of the restored screen.

Using Gnome-Do 0.8.3.1 from Lucid repositories with metacity compositor on ubuntu 10.04 with radeon open source driver (KMS disabled).
