Description

Created attachment 8625 Example wallpaper

From bambam2k3, https://github.com/bluesabre/xfce4-screensaver/issues/9

Expected behaviour When triggering the unlock, the login box is displayed on either a specified or default monitor

Actual behaviour When triggering the unlock, the login box is split between two screens

Steps to reproduce the behaviour I can reproduce this with 2 1980x1020 Monitors Use the attached wallpaper and set it to Spanning Screens as the style in Desktop settings

Lock the screen with either keyboard or let the screensaver lock it.

Move the mouse so it calls the Unlock Notice the unlock dialog is split between the two screens versus being fully on one screen or another.

XFCE general version 4.12
