Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Release: 20.04
with standard Ubuntu Gnome desktop.
ii gnome-terminal 3.36.2-1ubuntu1~20.04 amd64 GNOME terminal
emulator application
ii gnome-terminal-data 3.36.2-1ubuntu1~20.04 all Data files for the
GNOME terminal emulator
ii libvte-2.91-0:amd64 0.60.3-0ubuntu1~20.04 amd64 Terminal emulator
widget for GTK+ 3.0 - runtime files
ii libvte-2.91-common 0.60.3-0ubuntu1~20.04 amd64 Terminal emulator
widget for GTK+ 3.0 - common files
Steps to reproduce:
1. Have laptop with 1920x1080 display, but closed so the display is not
being used.
2. Have external 1920x1200 monitor connected via HDMI.
3. Open gnome-terminal and maximise it.
4. Press Windows+L to lock screen.
5. Leave computer locked for long enough for the monitor to go into
power save.
6. Unlock.
7. Notice that gnome-terminal window no longer covers the whole screen -
a 120 pixel bar of the desktop is visible at the bottom of the screen.
8. Double click on the gnome-terminal title bar in an attempt to
maximise the window and discover that the window gets smaller (because
it thought it was already maximised.)
9. Double click on the gnome-terminal title bar again and the window is
then maximised correctly.
Expected result:
The gnome-terminal window remains maximised covering the whole screen at
step 7. (However, if I were to unplug the external monitor and start
using the laptop display I would expect the window to remain maximised
but resized to cover the smaller display.)
I suspect that this problem can be reproduced with any two differing
display sizes.
