Top panel doesn't reserve space with maximized windows when primary display isn't top of view

Operating System: Arch Linux (4.10.8-1-ARCH) Budgie version: Budgie 10.2.9

The issue encountered Top panel does not reserve space when primary monitor isn't at the top of the collective viewport. Viewport might not be the right word, but what i mean by that is the entire area occupied by all monitors, see my screenshots in the next section.

Steps to reproduce the issue In the above configuration, maximized windows will draw under the top panel

In this configuration maximized windows behave properly, and if i nudge the primary screen down at all, i start to get overlap on maximized windows. It seems like the wrong value is being read, and it's just coincidentally right when there's only 1 monitor

I have the exact same problem as you, using the exact same layout for my two monitors.

I'm experiencing the same issue with the following layout:

Same problem with this configuration:

The space for the panel is left in the top screen (number 2), not in the screen with the panel itself.

This in turn means that when a window is maximized in the screen n. 2 a strip of background desktop remains visible at the top, whereas when a window is maximized in the screen n. 1 its top bar disappears under the panel.

If I change primary display to be the n. 2, maximizing works correctly in both screens.

Same here, when I had my main/primary monitor configured to be lower than the other, the top of windows could be hidden by the top panel. Very very frustrating.

(The graphical configuration tool is messed up for me also, as it's impossible to adjust the position of the monitors in a controlled way. They just jump around seemingly randomly, if I can get them to move at all when I'm trying to drag and move the representations of the displays.)

I occur same issue too, following is my display config:

When change to following positon, it worked now.

Maybe this is not a bug?

I have three monitors, with the following layout:

"Docking" windows to panel does not work. Neither does maximizing. It is most definitely a bug.

Setting the main monitor to Display 2 makes it act as expected for all monitors. I believe the issue is related to it finding potential space "above" the panel, on another monitor.
