MultiMonitor Issue with switching to fullscreen. - Didn'T use the primary screen #4440

Open JokerGermany opened 3 years ago

JokerGermany commented 3 years ago

Proton 5.13-2 Games: I think all games are effected, i have this in embr and Rocket League. Ubuntu Mate 20.04.1

If a game starts in Fullscreen, then it opens in Fullscreen on the primary screen. pefect. But if you use Alt+Enter to switch into window mode for doing something else and then switch back with Alt+Enter to fullscreen it opens on the secondary screen.

If you leave a game in window mode and you start a game, it will start in window mode. If you hit Alt+Enter it will opens on the secondary screen.

I didn't change anything, but there was a time, where i could drag the window to the desired screen, press Alt+Enter and it will be fullscreen on that screen. This didn't works anymore. It opens everytime on the second screen, which is on the left.

thats not particularly a wine/proton issue although proton "could" be having an effect on your WM

thats a WM (window manager) issue with your OS MATE DE (desktop enviornment) uses Marco WM to draw window frames for you

-- i should know, ive been using MATE for 6 years

I didn't have this sort of issue in anything else then proton, but lets see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1907313

For examples: I play a video in vlc/firefox/chromium and press fullscreen. Then i get a full screen on that screen, where the window is, like expected.

I don't know how to download old proton version, but i tested a older version of a fork: Proton-5.9-GE-8-ST Version. When the window is on the second screen he tries to make a fullscreen, but it didn't work. I think because the resolution of the windows (3440 x 1440) is bigger then the resolution on the second screen (2560 x 1440). When i move the Window back to the primary screen, it makes a full screen on my primary screen. This is what i want! I want it back...

=> I don't think it's marcos fault.
