2013-11-09 12:33:00 hife description 1. When using a second monitor on my laptop, where the top edges of both screens don't meet, the lower one is often, but not always, not accessible by moving the cursor over it. When activated by keyboard shortcut, mouse movement on the panel works as usual (switching between window menus and indicators). I am not sure if this is related to: 2. Edge actions may become inaccessible on dual monitor setup. Again with two different resolutions, e.g. if the bottom edges do not meet and the right monitor's bottom edge is below the left one's, an edge action assigned to the lower left corner is not accessible. 1.

Again with two different resolutions, e.g. if the bottom edges do not meet and the right monitor's bottom edge is below the left one's, an edge action assigned to the lower left corner is not accessible. Dual monitor setup on Ubuntu 13.10 - display 1: Laptop monitor as main display with launcher on the left and - display 2: external monitor with higher resolution plugged in via HDMI to the right of main display (no launcher) in such a way that one or more of the top and bottom edges don't line up. 1. When the top edges of display 2 is above that of display 1, the top panel menus and indicatores are often, but not always, inaccessible by moving the cursor over it on display 1 (working fine on display 2). When activated by keyboard shortcut, mouse movement on the panel works as usual (switching between window menus and indicators). 1.b) Sometimes a variant occurs, where only the menu items in the centre of the screen are affected, but those close to the sides of the screen can still be accessed via mouse.

Both issues were already present at least in Ubuntu 13.04.
