Bug Description

I can't reproduce this bug reliably. Nevertheless it happens a lot. It happens mostly after few hours of work in the Unity interface.

For reproducing this bug some ingredients are needed:

WHAT YOU NEED:

- You should have enabled workspaces (System Settings > Appearance > Behavior > Enable workspaces)
- You should have a few windows snapped to different corners of the desktop (Press Ctrl+Super+Left/Right or Alt+Ctrl+Num (keypad) on different windows and on different workspaces )

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:

Since I don't know exactly how to reproduce this bug, I can't tell you exactly what you should do. This bug shows itself after some time.
It particularly happens when trying to switch to a window that is on a different workspace by pressing Super+{1..9} shortcut, or by pressing Super+S shortcut.

WHAT HAPPENS:

- Windows jump to other workspaces (other than one they were originally snapped to)
Or
- Windows are slightly misplaced from the snapping position, so that the edges of the window enter the neighboring workspace.
