Bug Description
Window decorations (close / minimize / maximize buttons) do not draw on the external monitor on a laptop with external display. Windows on the laptop display are not affected.
UI scale on the built-in display is 1.25; it's 1.0 on the external display. I am not sure if this is relevant.
To reproduce:
1) Plug in an external monitor to a laptop; ensure that it is running in extended display mode
2) Launch an application such as the terminal
3) The terminal launches on the laptop's built-in display. Observe the window decorations draw as expected
4) Drag the terminal window to the second display
Expected results;
The terminal window is drawn on the extended display
Actual results:
The terminal window is drawn on the extended display but the close, minimize, and maximize buttons are missing.
The problem happens on windows from all applications I've tried (firefox, terminal, emacs, thunderbird)
