           Summary: acknowldege changes to individual screen frame position
                    of a composite screen
           Product: kwin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: xinerama
        AssignedTo: kwin kde org
        ReportedBy: estellnb yahoo de


Version:           Unbekannt (using 3.5.9 "release 57.4" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.16.54-0.2.3-default

Suppose a user using two screens of different size like that will f.i. always be the \
case for presentations.   
 > xquery -r 
 0 1600x1200 
 1 1280x800 
 
   Now suppose the user to move the relative screen position of screen #1 from \
1280x800+1600+100 to 1280x800+1600+200 where +1600+200/100 renders the frame position \
of monitor#1 in the composite screen of size 2880x1200 (#0 left of #1, #1 docked \
200/100 pixels measured from top of #0). 

  KWin still believes that screen #1 is at position +1600+100 instead of +1600+200. \
This turns out if the user f.i. tries to maximize a window (it will be located \
wrongly).

> dcop kwin MainApplication-Interface reparseConfiguration 
> dcop kwin KWinInterface reconfigure 
> dcop kwin KWinInterface refresh 
have changed nothing about it.  

> kwin --replace 
has resulted in no window manager running.

A manual relaunch of kwin & has made kwin acknowledge the new position of screen #1.
