Can't move applications across screens when there is a vertical panel #15

If this is a duplicate issue feel free to close, it might be something that's already known, if there's anywhere I can grab logs also happy to help.

Description

When there is a vertical panel, I can't move applications to the left screen on a dual monitor setup, the application seems to think that it's behind the panel and wont go any further.

This works fine with top + bottom. I also tried disabling window snapping to see if that was the issue.

Budgie version

Budgie 10.5.3

Operating system

Arch Linux

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Move panel to the left on dual monitor setup
  2. Try to move application to the left
  3. Application can't move past a certain point

I've also attached a video with the recreation.

Additional information

Running standard budgie package on arch.

Thats actually an X-Server limitation and standard. Some desktops have broken that standard by some tweaks and tucks.

For the moment you can workaround that by turning on auto-hide/intellihide on the panel.

Interesting, thanks.

Going to reclassify this as an enhancement since it would be working around intentional X11 behavior.
