Public bug reported: The following bug was reported at:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781803 ======================================================================================== I just installed the latest Lubuntu (17.04) and installed the latest standard GIMP in my repositories (2.8.20-1). The Layers/Channels/Paths/Undo/Brushes/Patterns/Gradients combined dock ( Whew! - is there a shorter name for this initially standard opening combo dock?) was so far to the right on my screen that I had to snag it with Alt-Drag (see screenshot). I am using the proprietary NVidia 304 package (which I have been automatically installing since (so far) Nouveau always manages to crash something I try to use; I have not actually tried it yet with the new Lubuntu, I suppose I ought to try one day...), and my monitor is set to a resolution of 1792x1344 (where DO they get these wierd coordinates?) Since GIMP remembers window placement between sessions, and I moved the window/dock so that it was entirely visible, this is obviously no longer a problem, but it would look bad for a new user of GIMP, and not everyone knows about Alt-Drag to lasso straying windows... --------------------------------------------- scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ uname -a Linux scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS 4.10.0-19-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 6 17:04:57 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ lsb_release -dsc Ubuntu 17.04 zesty scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ echo $DESKTOP_SESSION Lubuntu scott@scott-ASUS-M2N68-AMPLUS:~$ gimp --version GNU Image Manipulation Program version 2.8.20 ----------------------------------------------- If there is any other info that would help, let me know... -Scott =========================================================================================== " Michael Schumacher [GIMP developer] " was curious if this was a Lubuntu- or Ubuntu-only bug, as he had not encountered it. I was going to report it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/lubuntu/+filebug but the only "Project:"s that one can select are "Lubuntu Artwork", "... Software Center", "... next", "... Tweaks", "LxFind", and "LxScreenshot", in none of whose categories GIMP belongs, so I am "ubuntu-bug"ing it here... If any Ubuntu or Lubuntu users have either experienced this, or want to install it and see if it happens for them, Michael and I (and probably others) would be interested in knowing about it.
