Bug Description

I have two monitors setup using twinview. When I drag a window to the monitor without panels and maximize (via maximize button or via snapping to top of screen) it initially doesn't use the whole screen. It omits a titlebar sized portion at the top. The window acts like it is fullscreen but when looking at it it isn't. When I click the maximize button another time the window all of a sudden uses all screenspace (as it should have done before). Also when you are using the theme with the buttons on the left, a menu item of the window will have opened <-- this happens when you click the maximize button a second time.

Hey whoop,

Thanks for testing maverick during its development period. Unfortunately it looks like this bug report didn't get attention during the maverick development period. But I see there's not been more comments on the bug since the release, which makes me wonder if this is still an issue for you?

If you've not seen this issue since maverick's release yourself, it may have been solved by kernel or X or other updates that occurred late in the release; if so, would you mind please closing the bug for us? Go to the URL mentioned in this bug report, click the yellow icon(s) in the status column and set to 'Fix Released'.

If you no longer have the hardware needed to reproduce the problem, or otherwise feel the bug no longer needs tracked in Launchpad, you can set the status to 'Invalid'.

If you are the original reporter and still have this issue, just reply to this email saying so. (Or set the bug status to Confirmed.) If you are able to re-test this against 11.04 Natty Narwhal (our current development focus) and find the issue still affects Natty, please also run 'apport-collect <bug-number>' while running natty, which will add fresh logs and debug data, and flag it for the Ubuntu-X development team to look at.
