Bug Description

Under compiz config settings manager. The Grid option under edges tab. Settings any of the Resize Actions to "Top Right Corner" does not work correctly. When any window is dragged to the appropriate edge, the window is resized to the Top half of the viewport instead of the top right. All other corners/edges act as expected.

What needs fixed: Any hot-zone assigned to resize windows to "Top Right Corner" resize to "Top Half"

It also happens using shortcuts, for instance, ctrl+alt+9 behaves as ctrl+alt+8. I am using Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric witha a dual monitor setup.

This is affecting me, also, since upgrading from Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10. I've tried remapping the put_topright_key setting in gconf-editor to a variety of shortcuts, and they all behave as if I had sent a put_top signal (e.g. if I map ctrl+alt+a to put_topright_key, pressing ctrl+alt+a will send the current window to the top, just as if I had entered ctrl+alt+KP8).

I got the same bug on 11.10 with a fresh install and a handly compiled last compiz (with soreau's scripts).
This is not only reproductible, this appends each time. It is not possible to set a window in the right top corner with grid. Any expected way to put it in the corner will set the window on the top half of the screen.
Sounds like a copy-paste uncompleted between 2 lines (top, and top left) in source.

I can reproduce this just as described. In addition the rescaling steps which for example work for <Control><Alt>KP3 (i.e., 2/3, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 width) no longer work for <Control><Alt>KP4/6. This used to work flawlessly in 11.04.
