[SOLVED]Maximized windows go over visible screen area on the right

#1 Post by phykris »

Whenever I start an application or maximize the window of an application the window will go off screen on the right side (it it will be larger than the screen size).
The number of pixel that exceed the screen border seems to be equal to the width of the XFCE panel
Does anyone know how to fix this?
