If I use Plank on monitor number 2 (position left) then the monitor number 4 is useless.
I can’t move any application to that monitor (only to the half).
This bug occurs in any other setup… If the Plank is on monitor number 3 then 2 and 4 don’t work well.
If it’s 2 and positon bottom then monitor number 1 doesn’t work etc.
Only combination that works is to always put a Plank on the most left monitor (in the above situation it is monitor number 4) but that’s totally impractical.
I am pretty sure this is related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/plank/+bug/1755731. I ran into it while develloping window shuffler. Unfortunately, there was never any reaction on the report, nor fix. Please see if you can use the space without plank running to confirm.
I can use space when Plank is turned off or set to auto-hide. Thanks!
This definitively improves the experience. I’ll have to get used to auto-hiding now.
Problem with hide-show in the first place is that there is no monitor edge so you have to slow down the mouse to show Plank (dock) or you’ll slip to the next monitor.
sounds like need a “sticky edge” type feature. Dunno if there is a GNOME mutter type feature available. Would need to dig around in the various dconf settings.
Unfortunately bugs with multi monitors in (U)Budgie are not only related to Plank.
You’ll meet them even without using Plank and only Budgie panels.
I really think here is an issue with Budgie panels ( and how they should not expand above screen boundaries ) since Mutter in other DE doesn’t show same limitations.
Multi monitors setup is a weak point in Budgie for the moment.
