Bug.n glitches with external monitor #221

Closed ay2718 closed 5 years ago

ay2718 commented 5 years ago

Windows don't tile correctly in the external monitor, and the desktop icons will flash rapidly over an open window on the primary monitor if no window is selected. Sometimes bug.n will just freeze. I'm using version 9.0.2, with a stock config.

That's odd and a weird behaviour.

Which Windows version are you using?
Can you attach a screenshot, not of "desktop icons will flash rapidly", but perhaps of "Windows don't tile correctly"?
Do the desktop icons flash, if using a single monitor?
Please also post the lines from the log beginning with "DEBUG[0] Monitor_init: #".

Perhaps, any of this yields a clue.

Sorry for the late response. The problem seems to come from monitor scaling. On a single monitor, if the monitor scaling is changed (without logging out/in again), the windows will tile incorrectly. My multimonitor setup is working fine with both monitors running at native resolution.

This seems like a symptom of #155
