Comment 33 for bug 826771

This is a picture showing the background image being pushed downwards, as well as having en empty blank spot on the second monitor (the same as on the main monitor but just hidden under the gnome-shell bar) where the file/edit/view/go/bookmarks/help menu is located.

This issue DOES affect ALL Unity users in the fact that it pushes the background image downwards. This makes logging into the desktop ugly in that the background image loads fine and then jerks downwards, as well as the annoyance in that background images will not be aligned the way you tell them to.

It is primarily focused on gnome-shell users (due to the jerky activities menu in relation to the background image), but also to all gnome-shell users with transparent themes and/or more than 1 monitor. Similarly, it effects everyone who likes smooth and nice looking logins as well as background images being aligned properly.
