** Summary changed: - Compiz moving windows against my will + Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will
** Description changed: My screen is Nvidia Twinview setup and I'm using Gnome Classic with Compiz. I have found that since updating to 12.04 windows have two detrimental regressions. - 1. If I place a window between the first and second monitor (so it + 1. If I place a window between the first and second monitor (so it overlaps both), the window is forced back over. I can understand this for off-screen windows but between-monitors is silly. And there should be an option for turning this off if there isn't one already. - 2. If I place a window half-off the top of the screen, all hell breaks - loose. Firstly it snaps back down to the bottom of the screen but after - that, there's no way to detach it from the bottom of the screen. As soon - as you do (and then click anywhere) it snaps back down. The same is true - with the top (if you move a window too high up (say holding alt and - left-click-dragging the bottom up). I've found no way to work around - this other than to close the window and start again, or restart compiz. + 2. If I place a window half-off the bottom of the screen, all hell + breaks loose.

The first is a dual-screen issue, the second might affect everybody; but they definitely seem related.
