Build Identifier: 20120531-0157 Lets imagine, that you have two displays. A fullhd display, and a smaller notebook display. You set the size of the minimized stack popup according to the larger display. Then you drag the window to the smaller display, or simple unplug the bigger display. If you click now on the minimized stack, you simply do not see anything from the bottom of the popup. No scrollbar, no nothing. Suggestion: - there could be an option like "automatically fit the side of the stack". So if for example the stack is on the left side, the height of the popup would fit the height of the window, and the user could change the width of it only. Or if the stack is at the bottom, then the width could fit automatically, and the height could be set. - the second option is the same like above, the only difference is that there would not be such option, but the "popup" would not exceed the window, and a scrollbar would appear. Opinions? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Stack a view 2. minimize the stack 3. strech the minimized staccked view to fit the window 4. make the window smaller 5. enjoy the non visible non scrollable parts.
The short solution is to force the window into the *current* bounds of the owning shell *without* changing the stored values (so that if you move back to the larger display you get the larger fly out). Over the long haul my preferred solution to the docked / undocked laptop story would be to allow the user to define different UI arrangements for each and have the system determine which is the most appropriate one to use by examining the current Display setup.
The behavior to force the popup into the shell's bounds has already been implemented as part of the trim Dragging defect...
