Comment 26 for bug 1580123

It looks like I have this problem here too (jcristau pointed me at this bug report), though with a different symptom.

I have two monitors – one 1920×1080 and one 1280×1024, set up so that I have a wide desktop area, the wider viewport at (0,0) and the narrower one at (1920,0). Trying to move to the workspace below the current one via the smaller monitor (using xfwm4's workspace switching via pointer position) fails.

However, if I move its viewport such that the two are disjoint, all works as expected.

(That said, I do agree that constraining the pointer in this way is not a bad thing.)
