Bug Description

I have a dual monitor setup on elementary OS Loki 0.4.0. It is a clean installation.

Windows on the main screen can be dragged around the screen and maximize like it should.

Windows on the secondary screen don't maximize (double click on title and maximize button) and if I try dragging around, it is like there is a grid, that holds the window.

If I change the main screen, the problem persists.

I recorded a video to show better (attached).

Please, tell me if you need more info. Thanks in advance.

This happens when a larger primary display is arranged below a smaller secondary display.

For me, it happens when the smaller display, arranged below the larger, is set as primary.

If I set the larger one (which stays on top) as primary, the problem disapears.
